The House is designed by Architecture W, in 2005 with the address the conditions of site which returned the site unbuildable by the local community of real estate and envisage a simple and modern lifestyle for Michel Weenick, the American owner/architect and his family. The simple project of architecture, the exposed concrete walls and the floors, see garage galvanized out of metal, additional walls of plasterboard and laminate cabinetry of white, provide a neutrality which is animated as much by the Japanese and Western influences of the family of the customer while it is animated by the vistas, the breezes, and the going beyond of the site of the sunlight. This house is located in one of the more attractive residential vicinities of Nagoya at Japan, but with only 2.5 meters of the access and the whole of street of cul-de-sac on a difficult site which brings back of this level of access a total of 7 meters. In addition to the challenge provided by the site itself, the house also takes up the conceptual challenges of planning for national family of generations/multi multi, as well the challenge even larger to fix invaluable sights, sunlight, and breezes within the framework of a traditional vicinity to narrow of Japanese. In spite of the difficulty while reaching and while really building on the site, it was the device of the repurchase of the property one, its place at the edge of a cliff which planes above the northern part of Nagoya, which inspired the design of the house.

A hybrid structural system composed of the simple reinforced concrete, co

ncrete packed steel, and of a pair of bundles of steel large of 3m, very current inside the walls are and Western house of Japan, make it possible the design to adapt a series of to the site and the states of program all in also holding account so that altitudes of north and south are composed entirely of walls out of glass of slip which capture the sights, the sunlight, and them breezes (essential to survive the smoked out fog and with moisture current during the summer months of Nagoya) which makes this special building site thus. To the level low, this structure is attached in the additional retaining walls to cut out outside a self-contained flat which is a modern catch on Japanese Notion to deal with his/her parents as they age.

The higher level of the house is practically a simple open space which is used as principal alive space of the house. The bundles of steel which take account of the corbelling of the meter 5+ are buried behind 2 walls of storage and cabinetry of kitchen so that the 2 sides resident of the steel box - altitudes of north and south - can be composed entirely of walls out of glass of slip. These 2 walls slip into pockets and allow the whole room to become a room of external family of which spectacular sights and the pleasant breezes can be appreciated.
