Kakko House - Osaka


From the architect. This narrow house for a couple and their little child is located in a densely built-up area of Osaka, Japan. The size of the site is only width 3.4m wide by 13m deep.

To make full use of it, the house is framed in exposed structural steel, covered with thin fire - resistant adiabatic panels, and contains six floors with split levels.

Level1 (basement level) is a bedroom, Level 2(ground level) is a garage, Level 3 is for the little princess, Level 4 is a living space, Level 5 is a bathroom, and Level 6 is a roof terrace.

The expanded metal stair connects each floors and spreads the sun light inside. The residents are living like birds swinging from branch to branch in this house.
