This home for two parents and their three children is located in a quiet suburb, an hour from central Tokyo. To secure privacy near a busy road, the design features three residential volumes articulated by three standing walls, wrapped by boundary walls and a gate creating a light-filled buffer zone. Varying wall heights maximize sunlight while protecting privacy. Black bamboo lines the approach, enhancing the classical Japanese ambiance. The dynamic facade design turns Japan’s strict building and setback regulations into an advantage.
