From the architect. The “HO(好)” from HO HO JAE((好好斎) has meaning of “good” in Chinese character. By using this word twice in a row, we hope that this house would be a perfect place to live.

The basement level for husband and wife’s hobby room is bordered to 3m-wide dead-end road to the north. We secured a privacy of the room by planting bamboo to the road side. It also has enriched street scene.

The attic is designed for children’s play room and is in front of wood deck on rooftop. When planning the attic, we keep our mind on interchange between attic floor and family room on the second floor by eye contact.
