Article source: PERSIMMON HILLS architects This project involved redesigning one dwelling unit of condominium in Osaka, Japan. Requests from clients were “widely and brightly expansive space” and “amount of storage that is twice as large as general house”, when we started design. Although these are at first somewhat contradictory, requests that everyone wants. For responding such requests in limited occupied area and ceiling height of building skeleton, we focused to three elements usually working behind the space.  Image Courtesy © Kenta Hasegawa

As it doesn’t allocate necessary amount to necessary part, a loss of air volume is high. 2_”the volume of the storage”: The occupancy rate of the space is high also built-in storage space such as closet, storage furniture that is increasing later.

We tried to convert value by integrating these elements treated as if they do not exist in the space composition, making large pillar form / beam form.

By arranging a tough kitchen box with bricks, and a clean and bright water section box in there, the dwelling unit is composed.
