The site is located in the east of Hokkaido, the old city area of Saroma-cho and there is a road in the north side. The warehouses of the farm co-op stand along this street, and there is much traffic density. There is the office of the farm co-op in the East, and a warehouse is adjacent in the west. In the south, there is a small garden, and the house of parents of client is built. Jun Igarashi Architects designed the space for family(four persons) in this place. Space with the directionality to the south side was thought at first by the situation of the site outskirts and this place. They tried to solve space problem with a connection to the outside with a buffering space.
