'small house' by aoydesign located in tokyo, japan
japanese practice aoydesign has created 'small house', a fifty square meter single family residence located in tokyo, japan.sited at the junction of three streets, this compact triangulated lot in a densely developed residential area required an introspective design to maintain functionality and privacy. four parallel slanted volumes strategically allow natural daylight to enter interior spaces while inhibiting direct views from neighbors while minimal penetrations to the facade reduce urban sounds which may disturb dwellers.

from the loft's living and kitchen area, the structure's exterior shell creates a partially screened view directing the inhabitant's attention towards a mature tree. the bathroom is placed at the south end of the home to serve as a buffer minimizing heat transfer to the adjacent spaces. the focal stairway, walls and vaulted ceilings are predominantly surfaced with oriented strand
board (OSB) for a uniform texture which visually elongates the interior volume.
