With the increasing number of nuclear families in Japan, community is becoming increasingly scarce; although IOT is advancing, opportunities to interact with others are dwindling. In this project, we created an opportunity to create a community that interacts with this subdivision by rethinking the “Japanese terrace veranda” gathering scene that was once common in Japan. In addition, by creating a “Japanese terrace,” we have also taken into consideration measures to combat global warming in the summer.
