Architecture, Building and Structure Design Core Residential House by Michihiro Matsuo The planned site is located in the back of a quiet residential area, and houses are densely built around it. A high fence was installed around the site, exterior windows were kept to a minimum, and each area was divided into layers of different heights centered on a central light well. Inside this house, where privacy is protected, a moderate sense of distance in the space visually connects the residents, creating an interior space that spreads diagonally. As for the design, it has a simple structure, and although it is closed, it creates an open space for the residents.
