House in Tajiri 2

This is the rebuilding of the farmhouse built in the hill overlooking the Seto Inland Sea .

Before rebuilding , there was the most common farmhouse which has four squarely arranged rooms .

The principal objective of the design is grope of the concrete house which developed from the traditional farmhouse form .

The charm of the old farmhouse is a simplicity, a layout of the rooms regarded as structure together , and the component such as eaves and the opening controls house environment.

Because I was going to replace this characteristic with concrete , I thought about bearing wall structure which can make opening to all direction.

Specifically , it is the bearing wall structure arranged radially ,reinforced " the box " such as storage space.
