Relative to its size of the lot, available range for building space or area was limited due to difference of elevation for keeping it possible to see view of the Pacific Ocean.We planned to build a main house on the limited space.
The house reflects the difference of the elevation of the land so that floor level is changing as you go farther from the entrance.
Main bedroom is with low ceiling because the room is innermost in the house and roof is fixed height. Because of the low ceiling, main bedroom has private atmosphere.
Client wanted to keep a nostalgic place where they used to gather up for having dinner. Thus, we planed to keep the steel frame that is already there to build deck and annex where the client can have meal.
We planed this house that has unchangeable view of the Pacific Ocean by thinking of relationship between view and environment which cannot be done in urban place.
