Situated in a densely populated residential area, House in Nishinomiya has a narrow frontage but overlooks camphor trees in a shrine precinct across the street to the south. The client desired both privacy and appealing vistas.
The design team from FujiwaraMuro Architects crafted an urban home design that integrates views of the camphor trees into various spaces, providing a serene environment for family gatherings. By placing each room on a distinct level, they achieved a flexible and open relationship between the different areas of the house.
By staggering the floors, the design team maximized the potential for windows that offer views from various points within the house. The south-facing living room boasts a large window and a roof balcony above, enhancing the sense of vertical continuity both indoors and outdoors.
