House in Mukouyama / TSC Architects

TSC Architects have completed a 1,180 square ft single family residence in Ichinomiya City, Japan.  The two story home is constructed primarily from reinforced concrete. The materiality gives a strong character to the residential design as the concrete creates a harsh and bold exterior.  The architects do not attempt to soften that effect as the concrete stays exposed throughout the interiors.  Slices of light illuminate the hard wood floors bringing a touch of warmth to the structure.
