Unusual House Design with Extremely Narrow Gable Profiled Structure
This Tokyo house is an extremely narrow gable-profiled structure. This unique house design is a fine steel structure which looks very light and tender. It seems like a thin sheet of paper standing there, adjacent to normal homes, and if it would get a bit windy it might just blow away. Moreover, most of the living space of the owners is located below, since it was possible to actually use more floor area underground, than it was possible to use above ground. The interior space above ground has rather much light, because it penetrates through the “skin” of the facades and through the perforated metal floors inside. By just looking at the picture we couldn’t have guessed that the building has got a rather developed underground story. The house has its “roots”. Every architect dreams of such clients as the owners of this unique house design. Open for, perhaps even seeking, bold artistic and technical decisions, not afraid of the difficulties.
