Article source: dygsa This is a house in Hiroshima, Japan. The house is ideally suited for the client’s family of four – parents and two kids – with the purpose of spending weekends in the natural environment. It is situated on the top of a hill with the spectacular view over the surrounding area. The one-story house is in the shape of a square with sides that are 9.5m long.  Image Courtesy © dygsa

The main partition wall meets the ends at angles 80 and 100 degrees, which widens the view from the inside into the outside and raises awareness about the natural surroundings.

So when you open the front door, you get the feeling as if the inside space is the continuation of the outside one, and that makes it possible to bring the outdoor activities inside.

Moreover, on opening the inside sliding doors separating the wooden floor space and the concrete floor space, you get one spacious room. In this way the ordinary and extraordinary activities blend in one splendid hybrid space.
