Here we introduce a design plan of the two-family residence in Yamagata prefecture.

It is composed of a one-story house for elder family, a two-story house for younger family, and a japanese style room with a terrace between those houses. The roofs of houses of both sides  smoothly connected, although their heights are not equal.
