Tokyo by Satoshi Kurosaki / APOLLO Architects & AssociatesJune 8th, 2023 by Sumit Singhal
Article source: Satoshi Kurosaki / APOLLO Architects & Associates Located in a quiet residential neighborhood not far from downtown, this striking house on a corner lot is comprised of two stacked cubes made of contrasting materials: exposed concrete on the bottom and composite lumber on top. The wood-frame second-floor volume juts out 2.7 m over the parking area adjacent to the entrance in a dynamic columnless design. To ensure privacy in the first-floor master bedroom and children’s bedroom, the building is enclosed by a high concrete wall imprinted with the Japanese cedar formwork used to make it, which blocks views of the interior from the street.

The architectural idea of the house was inspired by the area itself, which is a former dune, currently overgrown with a forest, which base are pines. Therefore, the aim was to create a facade that is somewhat close to pine bark, so that the walls and roof of the building like scales resemble the bark of a pine.

The legislation determines that all developments must respect the topography, vegetation and wildlife of the area: a geography where the horizontality of the Pampean plain is cut by the presence of sandy ridges, fixed by grasslands, which run perpendicular to the coast until they disappear in huge beaches.
