concept
The property is located at the top of a hill with a small height and a location with a nice view in the south. There was a request from the client to make use of it.
There are some squashed openings in a square outline. Designed so that light, wind and scenery can be symbolically brought in from the opening to the inside.
I design void to enjoy the light in the room.
Since the opening on the viewing side faces the road, we had to set up a fence. When seeing a view, you can see it as part of the view. I examined something in the texture of the fence, a thing that feels soft. As a result, firewood is put in the mesh for civil engineering work. and it is used as a fence.
