This project is located in Suzuka city, well known for the most famous F-1 circuit in Japan. Therefore, the client is a big fan of a car, so that the fist request is to securely but beautifully store his car collections as well as his cute motor bike. To store 3 cars in this tricky shape of the site which is composed of 20M passage from street to buildable space, there is no right angle in building shape to realize smooth in and out parking. This is also true that it makes this project difficult, especially beam - column connection, but we believe that difficulty becomes impressive in the end. On the first floor, there is a place for a car and husband’s space. In order to make the cars look as beautiful as possible, squeezed natural light is invited from court yard. Second floor is designed for a family space, living dining kitchen, which has a high-side window that reach up to the sky. Even though it doesn’t have opening to south side, the hi-side window make this space enoughly bright. It was designed to take care of the balance of the hobby and life.
