Satoshi Okada’s Modern House Design in Aobadai
When Satoshi Okada found that his client is a young executive person, a party addicts, and a car maniac, he knows what to build for the most proper taste.
His client demanded that he need a large garage to store 4 cars in the house made of a rigid and safe reinforced concrete structure against fires or earthquakes. The client’s demand would occupies at least a half of the whole site. in terms of architectural laws to the cosmopolitan area, tall buildings cannot be realized for maintaining a well-preserved housing environment particularly on the right of light. On the north boundary, a setback regulation in architectural laws restricts the building height less than 5.6meters.
House Components
The house is basically composed of two structural elements. One is reinforced concrete walls and slabs; the other is an iron structured flat roof. In the plan, I set up a tilted wall which is perpendicular to the east end boundary of the site. It divides the house into two portions; the smaller part on north is exposed to the sky by a series of glass roof, the larger one is under a single opaque roof. The transparent / translucent roof, made of anti-heat and anti-ultra-violet ray glass, on the north is effective for introducing sunlight.
A row of bathroom and laundry is on the ground floor along the south end wall. The bathroom faces to a tiny garden which functions as a light well and ventilator, which also connects the master bedroom. Landry directly links to the garage, which is convenient for sweaty works of the vehicle enthusiast.
Materials
On the ground floor, concrete surface is remained for a finishing except white marble on the floor, which is continuous from the outside walkway to entrance inside. While on the first floor, a hard water-resistant wood is used for both places inside and terraces outside. Sash is made of steel painted in black, and all glass is air tighten paired glasses. On small windows, their frames are industrially made of aluminum. Glass roof along the north end wall has a quality of anti-heat and anti-ultra-violet ray. A flat opaque roof above the living is proofed by rubber-asphalt sheet on steel structure.

It must be a challenge to make a house with those kind of laws but i’m in love with how this house is made it as if you’re in a tunnel and you see this dim light sipping through very innovative.
