A semi-subterranean recess, created by excavating the site 1.5m above the street level, was used as a space for a bedroom and study, creating a moderately enclosed and relaxed atmosphere. A simple rectangular box was placed on top of it to serve as the living room and water area. Furthermore, by cutting off the corners of this rectangular box, a large triangular opening to the sky was created. The living room, terrace, and bathroom are arranged around the opening, and we expected various activities to develop while maintaining an appropriate relationship with the surrounding environment.
