House in Mishuku II
This two-story house stands in a densely populated area of Setagaya, Tokyo. This is the second building of a paired residential unit for the same clients, a married couple in their 60s. The Archetype designed their first residence in 2004. As the family members increased, they had to expand the property. Fortunately, the space right next to the house became vacant and the second residence was built there.

New work: SOPH. DAINAGOYA BUILDING (2016.09.16)

New work: House in Oyamadai (2016.08.05)

New work: SOPH. ROPPONGI HILLS (2016.08.05)

More architectural projects by The Archetype online very soon

Location: Tokyo, Japan, eastern Asia
