NoMaDoS

一級建築士事務所

【Background】


This house is located on a triangular site at the confluence of tributaries of the Kitakamigawa River. Across the flowing river to the south is a wide landscape of apple orchards.


We planned to build a house for this couple and their future children and cats to cherish family time.

【Highlights】


・The curved ceiling can dissipate the summer heat upwards to the windows while reflecting the surrounding green into the interior like a screen.


・We set the height of doors and windows considering the surrounding terrain, planning to ensure privacy while experiencing nature around.


・Considering the house's location near the river, we set it above the flood height predicted on the hazard map to prevent natural disasters.


・The exterior walls use high insulation specifications and radiant heating. In winter, the entire house is comfortably heated by draft-free heating.
