「Glass House」は、日本の伝統建築の要素を取り入れ、建物の三方に縁側や回廊を巡らせた別荘です。内と外を緩やかにつなぐことで、日々の暮らしの中で自然や四季の移ろいを身近に感じられる空間をつくりました。近隣の住宅からの視線に配慮しながら、室内は周囲の緑だけに向かって静かに開かれています。 Glass House is a villa composed with elements of traditional Japanese architecture, where engawa spaces and surrounding verandas wrap around the building on three sides. By softly connecting interior and exterior spaces, the project creates an environment where nature and seasonal changes can be experienced closely in everyday life. At the same time, views from neighboring houses are carefully controlled, allowing the interior to open quietly toward surrounding greenery alone.
