Text description provided by the architects. It is a project that converts office and apartment building over 40 years into single family house. The site is located in a residential area close to central Shizuoka city.In the area,it is difficult to predict the future environment.Because a lot of houses are rebuilding due to aging.So we attempted to create a depth between the private room and the city.
