The "house in Horinouchi" is a two-storey private dwelling for a family of three in Suginami, Tokyo, Japan. Situated on a triangular site between a river and a road, the design is a direct response to the characters and qualities offered by the plot while remaining within the local permits and regulations of the area.

Accommodating a private room at the ground level, the communal programs are placed on the second floor and are flanked on both sides by stretches of windows. The kitchen on the west end of the layout benefits from a double height ceiling and establishes sight lines to a small loft level above. Accessed by a ladder, the elevated area serves as a multifunctional space with natural illumination from a large skylight. Though small in size, the dwelling provides a living space that visually extends the sense of space through both horizontal and vertical openness.
