House in Miyayamadai

Across the street from this property is a park with groves of plum and cherry blossom trees. We aimed to incorporate views of this landscape into the home to the greatest extent possible. A shifted staircase creates room for a crevice-like ventilation shaft that links all three floors of the building.
