A villa fronting a private drive is a three-minute walk from Isshiki beach in Hayama where is an old resort village. The layout settled on five separate volumes that were not imposing to adjacent houses. volumes are placed around a courtyard hosting the swimming pool and opening southward to the ocean. The pitched roof heights generally align with interior functionality, but are set in relation to neighbouring residences and the existing large camphor tree. The gaps between the volumes comprise corridors leading to the periphery from the courtyard and provide passages of light and breezes.
