Family space is made up of mostly wooden floors and furniture creating a cozy space with a kitchen, a common living space, and a large bedroom on the 3rd and 4th floor. The 5th floor is guided by a spiral staircase and up in the middle of a small garden, where everything is expanded and immersed in nature. On this floor, everything is restored to natural and rustic style with concrete, natural stone floor to remind the origin of the land that existed before construction. This is a meditation space where the owner can dig and find back to one's nature.
