About Stack Up Casa

Stack Up è una casa in legno a due piani costruita in un'area urbana densamente edificata. L'esterno ricorda una pila di scatole di dimensioni diverse, che conferisce all'edificio un senso di profondità. Le finestre sono state posizionate in modo da limitare la vista dalla strada, mentre ampie superfici vetrate lasciano entrare la luce naturale. Un soffitto alto aggiunge una sensazione di ampiezza. Una corte interna permette l'ingresso di luce e aria mantenendo al contempo la privacy degli ambienti. Un grande albero nel giardino funge da schermo. Il giardino è inoltre organizzato come area di sgambamento per i cani, con recinzioni e scale ad altezze sicure.

Design Challenge
At the client's request we incorporated a design that would make the miscellaneous goods collected as a hobby stand out in the home. We adjusted the interior materials and colors to create a space that would bring out the appeal of the miscellaneous goods. In addition the garden design is centered around stones and we designed it to harmonize with the interior while making the most of the texture of natural materials.
Research
We carefully considered the optimal window layout taking into account the surrounding environment. We made sure to incorporate the client's request for large windows while also making sure to create a space where they could live comfortably. In particular we planted a large tree in the garden and used it as a screen. This allowed us to block out the view from outside while also letting in a pleasant amount of light creating a living room with a sense of openness.
Inspiration
This house is located in the city center but we aimed to create a space that would provide a high level of privacy and a sense of comfort similar to that of a resort hotel. The building has a design that resembles overlapping boxes giving it a sense of depth. In addition by incorporating a design with a courtyard we have created an open space. While allowing in natural light and wind, we have created a private space where you can spend time without worrying about the eyes of those around you.
Project Duration
Built in Kurashiki City Okayama Prefecture in 2023
Operation Flow
The garden is designed to be used as a dog run and a spacious area has been secured where pets can run around freely. Safety has also been taken into consideration and by carefully selecting the height of the fences and stairs an environment has been created where dogs can live comfortably.
