There are homogeneous prefabricated houses in one side, and ancient Japanese-styled houses and rich nature spread in another side. It is the typical site of Nara. We planned a new residence for young husband and wife.  Image Courtesy Yohei Sasakura

The closed space with specific functions, such as soundproof studio, a bathroom, a utility room, and a bedroom, was unified by a black volume.

Third, by combining two volumes, the residence could have a small courtyard and was able to gain a wind, light, and a view.
