The idea behind this design is to accommodate privacy, while living comfortably in the dense downtown area of central Tokyo.

The rooms that need maximum privacy, such the bedrooms and bathroom, are located on the first and second floor.

The third floor has very high ceilings which allows for a lot of natural sun light from the windows on the south side of the structure.

As the pictures show, the design of the handrail on the deck, along with the translucent windows, allows for maximum privacy from the outside world.

The rough steel frame allows ample amounts space, while keeping the budget to a minimum. The inside handrail, light fixtures, bookshelf and other furnishings create a unique harmony and theme to the interior design.
