English	Traditional Japanese townhouses (machiya) use central gardens to integrate nature into daily life, fostering a unique aesthetic and respect for nature. This house was designed with the mission of living in harmony with the sky, both physically and poetically. A central courtyard, surrounded by rooms, brings light and wind inside. Visitors are guided through a dark hallway into the bright courtyard, where the sky welcomes them. The shifting light and shadow, changing with the seasons, offer a strong connection to nature. The courtyard, serving as both a room and passage, creates a spacious feel beyond its actual size.
Native	伝統的な日本の町家は中央に庭を設けることで自然を生活に取り入れ、独特の美意識や自然への敬意を育んできました。また空との物理的、抽象的、詩的な関係無く住宅は存在しえ得ません。この住宅は空と共にどう生きるかをミッションとしました。家の中央に中庭を設け、それを囲むように部屋を配置しました。玄関を入ると暗く細長い通路の先に明るく広がる中庭が見え、奥へと引き込まれ、中庭に達すると無限に広がる空が迎えてくれます。光と風が建築内部に柔らかく広がり、季節や時間によって変化する光と影が自然の豊かさを感じさせます。中庭は部屋になったり通路になるなど多様な使い方が出来る事で、実際の面積以上の豊かな暮らしを作り出せます。
