#8 House in Nada / Fujiwarramuro Architects - by Blenda Araujo



This is an interesting project about how we can work perfectly in small spaces. Located in a downtown residential area of Nada, Hyogo, Japan; this small site has about 36.95 sqm. Which it is possible to compare with a size of a really small apartment. 

But, here the architects worked with the high of the building to give the sensation of a bigger space.




In addition, three-dimensional gaps and holes in the visual field give the sensation of complete elimination of any feeling of a two-dimensional spatial narrowness, or sensation of being fenced in.



The daylight is solved by the slatted, drainboard-like floors on the first through third floors are connected to the slatted tables, stairwell and skylights, allowing sunlight to reach right to the bottom of the house.
