This project started with the desire to create a home with a garden. The client wanted a house with a gentle connection between the living room and the garden, and a small but separate Japanese-style room.Hearth Architects, a well-known Japanese architectural firm, was founded in 2016 by architect Yoshitaka Kuga. He is good at creating a connection between architecture and nature, integrating the concept of "home" into nature.

Therefore, in this plan, Hearth Architects made the building itself is a simple L shape, with the LDK and the Japanese-style room close but gently separated by the south-facing courtyard and then formed a gentle connection to a courtyard on the outside.

The LDK is designed to be easy to use by gently connecting it to the outside through a large wooden window and a Japanese-style veranda which is in an L shape, as an intermediate area. A simple house that is full of nature will give the client’s life more richness and diversity than ever.
