SHAKUZEN

The "Shakuzen" has a shape similar to that of the traditional Alps, and coexists with a boldly overhanging structure. The pair of "forest" and "river" make up the chalet, and the two chalet-like buildings are like mirrors of each other. Combining contemporary Japanese design with Scandinavian taste, it is composed of simple lines and subdued colors. "Sanzen", which stands in contact with Tanigawa, is embraced by the birch and oak forests of Hokkaido, and the scenery "snapshot" from the window is a constantly changing art work. The large living room on the second floor with sloping ceilings is a spacious space where you can invite the whole family and friends to enjoy. There are plenty of places to sit and chat, such as a large bay window bench where you can relax and read. The children's room with bunk beds also has its own media corner. By adopting a steel structure, both ends of the ridge are overhanging. From this overhanging master bedroom and living room, you can feel the sensation of touching the tip of a tree when you reach out. By utilizing the overhanging structure, the area of ​​the foundation has been reduced and the impact on the site has been reduced. The building is efficiently designed with triple glazing and a heating system that recirculates warm air from the top of the ceiling under the floor.
