Charred Cedar House - naf architect & design

<strong>Design Concept<br /></strong>The site is located in a district where many traditional sake breweries preserve good old Japanese street with plaster and charred cedar walls. In winter, during sake brewing season, a cloud of steam comes out from red brick chimneys of the breweries and the scent of sake wafts in the air. “Charred Cedar House” stands in such neighborhood.<br /><div align="center"><br /><a href="http://public.bay.livefilestore.com/y1pMOSCzJAYB2-f1ZtL2xXgxZj70SBj1ADe_bPSw_EQQMSBPT6gaCOx41cQSPl5mBFe7gyXqyDxpoboblq2PqoJwA/saijyo2053.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Casa de Cedro Negro - naf architect & design, arquitectura, casas" border="0" src="http://public.bay.livefilestore.com/y1pMOSCzJAYB2-f1ZtL2xXgxZj70SBj1ADe_bPSw_EQQMSBPT6gaCOx41cQSPl5mBFe7gyXqyDxpoboblq2PqoJwA/saijyo2053.jpg" style="WIDTH: 550px; CURSOR: hand" /></a><br /></div><div align="left"><br />Fence made of charred cedar shields three sides of the plot to save the privacy; east side from an adjacent house, north and south side from public parking where cars come and go around the clock. West side of the house borders directly nostalgic street of traditional houses and brewery warehouses of white stucco. The house remains open to the street to blend in the scene although trees may be planted in the future.</div><div align="center"><br /><a href="http://public.bay.livefilestore.com/y1px6EWqsJfyl64aUYDmLe01COm-kVfT2GOXmcaXdzqPrDFJ7iMA2AS2aVPOkmJrEBXjCyRmVuXuZl0q_XSTT7ElQ/saijyo2057.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Casa de Cedro Negro - naf architect & design, arquitectura, casas" border="0" src="http://public.bay.livefilestore.com/y1px6EWqsJfyl64aUYDmLe01COm-kVfT2GOXmcaXdzqPrDFJ7iMA2AS2aVPOkmJrEBXjCyRmVuXuZl0q_XSTT7ElQ/saijyo2057.jpg" style="WIDTH: 550px; CURSOR: hand" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://public.bay.livefilestore.com/y1paFNg8tTIkdtdj2SFBydneHPA_MBVlQ_65KMfb-fF20yU3F5F7a_0GUj7wgWQ-un8glBk0x-9LUF0zSRtXfFOwA/saijyo2061.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Casa de Cedro Negro - naf architect & design, arquitectura, casas" border="0" src="http://public.bay.livefilestore.com/y1paFNg8tTIkdtdj2SFBydneHPA_MBVlQ_65KMfb-fF20yU3F5F7a_0GUj7wgWQ-un8glBk0x-9LUF0zSRtXfFOwA/saijyo2061.jpg" style="WIDTH: 550px; CURSOR: hand" /></a><br /></div><div align="left"><br />The house consists of three layers of different nature of space.

Entrance hall, tatami room and main bedroom are partitioned by sliding doors and when fully opened, the first layer becomes quasi-outside.

The framework is calculated on the assumption of resistance to enormous force of earthquake which does not exist in everyday life. However, pillars of extremely small diameter can resist vertical and horizontal load simultaneously when correctly tilted and positioned. When this formula is found, the space free from enormous force or conventional structure method floats in the air as natural as up above brunches of trees. </div><div align="center"><br /><a href="http://public.bay.livefilestore.com/y1pYpzPUwzXIkw5H1ln_gLbrlt1IGVhzxo8wxiML0eCqi7x4N_w4MT9XCniTLDL0PRfKRrc32afW-1jcwIs0uaTEg/saijyo1955.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Casa de Cedro Negro - naf architect & design, arquitectura, casas" border="0" src="http://public.bay.livefilestore.com/y1pYpzPUwzXIkw5H1ln_gLbrlt1IGVhzxo8wxiML0eCqi7x4N_w4MT9XCniTLDL0PRfKRrc32afW-1jcwIs0uaTEg/saijyo1955.jpg" style="WIDTH: 550px;
