The Drawer Balcony House, designed by Naf Architect & Design, showcases a distinctive approach to urban living in a densely populated area. Located on a compact 99 sqm lot with a 6-meter frontage, this house creatively maximizes space and privacy while fostering a connection with the surrounding environment.
The site is long and narrow from north to south, with a difference in elevation from the road. We can use it openly and spaciously because the line of sight from people and cars coming and going along the road is offset.
This is an interior renovation project of an existing two-story timber structure house in Tokyo which was built approximately 40 years ago. The clients, a young couple and the wife’s parents, were already living here before the renovation.
