Located in Kyoto’s downtown area, close to Kenkun Shrine and densely populated with old townhouses, the proposal was made within various constraints, including a site area of ​​just under 66 sq. meters, an aesthetic district, and a quasi-fire prevention area.
With a two-ken entrance being the maximum possible construction requirement, the living, dining, and kitchen area was planned on the second floor, creating a bright and spacious space with a sloped ceiling that doesn’t feel compact.
In particular, by making the kitchen and surrounding storage areas fixtures, the flow of traffic is kept compact, and the finish has a wooden feel that matches the space.
