It is a perfect playground for kids at a small space in a town, such as narrow paths between houses, the edge of a gardens, the back of a shed, under a floor, or an open lots. Rather than a park or garden that was built to be played in, we wanted to make a house with a courtyard that would become a playground naturally. We designed the residence with not only collecting rooms but also producing some structures in the space. Paths are covered by a glass roof weave between the disconnected structures to create an interior space that feels exterior, a private space that feels public, a hall that feels like an avenue. In that space the children can run around, you can enjoy a breeze while you eat, read under the sun, and fall asleep watching the stars. There is a charm beyond imagination there, beyond normal home life. Just like children who use space outside to its full potential, we wanted to make equal the relationship between inside- and out by using the courtyard as a part of everyday life and bringing inside activities outside. Beyond making city streets like courtyards to make them feel closer to houses, we want to continue to try and envision the architecture of the future, moving past the inside-outside relationship to find new types of connections.
