This building is constructed by wood lightly so that it fits into the shape of the family in the future. The first floor is an extended plan as a family time space, the second floor is constituted of a climbing beam structure with no roof truss like a garret so that the layout can be reconfigured according to the future family member. The roof is partly largely cut out, and from the balcony you can see the city of Osaka. The ceiling is a simple beam structure and realizes the beautiful wooden space. Also, the structure consists of solid woods. Stroog connectors are also applied to solid wood, and we can make the most of the beauty of the tree. No reinforcing metal fittings including strap bolts are required, and only requires small slits, it can realize beautiful joints even in exposed structures.
