House in Hinomiya / TSC Architects

For their latest residence, Japan-based TSC Architects have designed a minimalistic house situated in Hinomiya. Similar to their House in Mukouyama, featured previously on AD, this residence shares the same strategy of a softened aesthetic thanks to a limited, yet thoughtful, material selection and color palette.

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.
