A House That Cherishes Materials and Lives with the Seasons<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Standing on a corner lot in a quiet residential neighborhood, this house aimed to be a place where a family\u2019s growth and warmth can be felt through the shifting seasons. The living room, with its 2.7m ceiling, uses oak flooring, walls of cedar board and coniferous plywood in a sumi (ink) finish, and an old cinnamon timber salvaged from a former house. Attentive to each material and each way of laying it, it is a space where client, architect, and carpenter worked through much trial and error. Within that organic space, a stainless kitchen stands with dignified poise, setting the scene for the family to gather and relax. In the bathroom facing the second-floor deck terrace sits a Towada-stone tub, where, along with the texture of natural stone and the scent of hinoki cypress, one can sense the budding of fresh greenery, the blue skies of summer, the starry skies of autumn, and the glow of snow. A dwelling where everyone in the family can enjoy the scenery before their eyes.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<\/div><\/section>\n\n\n\n\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"works_main_image":775,"works_sub_image":776,"works_location":"Tokyo","works_type":"New build","works_completion_year":"2020","ogp_image":773,"ogp_caption":"A corner-lot home where the four seasons can be felt.","footnotes":""},"works_category":[9,7],"works_tag":[17],"class_list":["post-297","works","type-works","status-publish","hentry","works_category-new-build","works_category-residence","works_tag-thoughtfulstorage"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/s-designfarm.co.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/works\/297","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/s-designfarm.co.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/works"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/s-designfarm.co.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/works"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/s-designfarm.co.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/works\/297\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1037,"href":"https:\/\/s-designfarm.co.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/works\/297\/revisions\/1037"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/s-designfarm.co.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=297"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"works_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/s-designfarm.co.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/works_category?post=297"},{"taxonomy":"works_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/s-designfarm.co.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/works_tag?post=297"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
