This is a Japanese small house was designed by architect Kazunori Fujimoto for a young couple in the country of Okayama. The house located in the natural rich farm village. This house is “a trial which aims at fusion to traditional farm village scenery and a modern life.” Built in 2008 in Ibara, Okayama prefecture, Japan, this house consists of box-space and roof-space. There are two bedrooms and bathroom in box-space, and there is storage(23.5 square meters)in an underground story. In roof-space, there are the entrance,kitchen and living room.The living room continues with the nature through an outside terrace.

The ground floor is space like the one-room of 78.5 square meters. In order to articulate this small space more attractively, box-space and roof-space are connected carefully. If the sliding door of a bedroom is opened, all the rooms serve as one room space, and two spaces are gently connected with the level difference reflecting a site slope.
