Waro Kishi + K.ASSOCIATES/Architects – key design
This house is located in Fukaya, Saitama Prefecture on the north Kanto plain. Despite its proximity to megalopolitan Tokyo, the site is encompassed by monotonous, semi-urban surroundings, typical of north Kanto a setting that discourages description as a “city suburb.”
The house has a rectangular plan that is tripartite in function. The south part contains the private elements the garage and bedrooms on two levels. The north part contains the living/dining area. A court with a pool is placed between them in the center of the building.
