This house, which is located in Nagoya, Japan has three function, as a flower shop, art gallery and a living quarter, the architect broke the unseen barrier and integrated the three spaces, which are normally separated.

The building was also created according to its surroundings, on the north side, there is an elementary school that provides unchanging environment for the future, especially for the schoolyard that provides views of its trees and flowers. On this side, the walkway that leads to the school is incorporated to the house via an open space that was created by utilizing the height of the first floor ceiling to frame the schoolyard views and the walkway. The architect also built a large opening only on the north side to reduce noise effect from the walkway and to provide soft natural lighting for the house.
