House in Nagoya 2_suppose design office

When the site doesn’t provide you with garderns, does it mean the design of a house on site will be less interesting?
The answer is no. The Japanese architect Makoto Tanijiri and his firm Suppose Design Office provided a perfect answer: let’s build a garden in a house.
On a site like this, it is hard to design a bright and spacious house with lawns. The idea started with the thought of a “garden room” to grow plants inside the house, then later the garden room became bigger and bigger until it was treated as equal as other rooms. The use of windows as partition wall and the floor and roof cut to provide sunlight and playfulness are both successful strategy. Although Makoto Tanijiri said he would like to blur the borderline of exterior and interior, it is still hardly to say the garden and plants are exterior with the big skylight above it. Maybe that is the beauty of it, it is interior but feel like exterior.
