Higashitakamatsu house

東高松のいえ

2017

和歌山城の南に位置する閑静な住宅街にある東高松の家。南北に延びる敷地に対して、北側の玄関から南側のリビングに足を運ぶに連れ、だんだんと明るくなるように光の入る量を調整しています。奥行きを感じる効果とともに、リビングに入った時に感じる開放感へと意識がつながっていきます。

The residence in Higashitakamatsu where locates in a quiet residential area South of Wakayama Castle - along the premises extending north and south, as you walk from the north entrance toward the south living room, the sunlight level thrown into the inside is adjusted so that it gives gradually brighter. Not only it helps make the residents feel the length of the house, but it also gives them feel a sense of openness.

一階と二階を繋ぐ中庭にはデッキと植栽を配置。外部からの視線は遮られているので、その利点を活用し浴室と中庭とを繋げています。また、二階のデッキ部分では建物の壁を利用したスクリーンで、映画を楽しむ事が出来き、家族団らんに一役買っています。

Deck and plantings place on the courtyard connecting the first floor and the second floor. The looks from outside are blocked so that we make use of the advantage and link the yard to the bathroom. Furthermore, the building wall on upstairs’ deck provides as a screen, so the family can enjoy watching movies together, thus making it play the role of happy family harmony.
