The site is an ultra-tiny just only 30 square meters facing a narrow alley in a densely-built wooden house areas. In this project, we tried to reconsider the framework from the type of small houses that are lined up in the area. The facade of the building is 3 meters wide opening, and the interior of the building is a mixture of finely layered floors and three-dimensional braces that support the horizontal force. TOKYO SKYTREE can be seen at the end of the three-dimensional alley that leads from the lower floor, which has a large amount of walls, to the upper floor, which is guided by three-dimensional braces.
