We formed a house around a spiral within a dense residential area. A stepping floor extends upward, connecting inhabitants both to the ground below and the air above. The structure is clad with thin wood panels resembling a peeled apple. The wood, interspersed with vegetated panels, functions as a screen to protect the “fruit” from sunlight while also creating a private space within the busy neighborhood.

高密住宅地の中に、ラセン状の居住空間を挿入した。巨大な階段のような床が、ラセン状に連続して大地と空をつなぎ、その外に、剥いたリンゴ皮のような外皮が、ぐるぐると取り巻く。外皮を構成する木のパネルと緑化パネルは、日差しや視線を和らげるスクリーンとしてリンゴを守ってくれる。
