来自建筑事务所的描述。日本拥有丰富的森林资源，和世界上一流的木结构建筑技术。同时这是一个地震频发的国家，这使得他们更加注重房屋结构以应对不期而遇的地震威胁。比起混凝土钢铁结构，木结构房屋对墙体设计有着更加苛刻的要求，比如不能有很大的跨度。但同时，传统日本建筑也证明了这种受限制的木结构房屋也有着无与伦比的优点：那就是增加了建筑设计的空间质量。
From the architect. Japan has abundant forest resources and world's first class timber construction technology. The country is, at the same time, struck by frequent earthquakes and has very strict structural regulations against the seismic force. Compared to concrete or steel frame structure, timber structure requires more walls and has other limitations such that it cannot readily span a long distance. Traditional Japanese architecture has proven, however, that these limitations of timber structure can – when used as an advantage and properly applied – enhance the architectural spatial quality.

这一安静的住宅位于东京郊区，房屋在离地面一米左右的高度建起。客户的要求是在这个紧凑的空间建造尽可能大的建筑空间，为了满足客户这一要求，设计师将房子布置在了北边的最高点，这个房屋的三角墙设计不至于挡住住户对室外街道状况的关注。交错排列的楼层从半地下室开始向上延伸。斜屋顶和梯形地板设计增加了顶层的面积的空间感。
This residence in a quiet residential neighborhood of Tokyo's suburb is elevated 1 m above the street level. In order to meet the client's request for the maximum building volume on the compact site, the house is built up to the highest point allowed by the north-side regulation (which limits the building height to avoid casting shadow on the neighboring houses). It has a gabled form so that it would not overwhelm the passerby on the street. The staggered floors were derived from the semi-basement – created for the easement of the floor area ratio – and the approach that utilizes the existing ground level. The top floor is a generously-sized continuous space composed of slanted roofs and stepped floors.
为了创建一个大的开放空间，需要一个好的平面设计来定位梁、柱准确位置。空间中有适当的木柱阵列来定义较大空间。梁是由现成的木材v型支撑。最终在满足预算的前提下创建出一个相对较大的木结构开放空间。
It requires a good planning to place beams and columns in order to create a large open space. The appropriate placement of timber columns in a large space was also considered while using the columns to define the space. The beams – composed of readily available lumber – are supported by V-shaped columns. Together, they create a relatively large – for timber structure – open space while meeting the budget. The composite beams and V-shaped columns define spaces in the room.
