Text description provided by the architects. The house stands almost at the top of a hilly residential area 10 minutes by train from Yokohama. Originally developed in the 1950s as Futamatagawa New Town, the land is laid out along the topography in regular rows of similarly sized residential lots. In addition to being a first-class low-rise residential area, the land is subject to strict diagonal restrictions starting at 5m on the north side. These land divisions and regulations result in a hilly area covered with small detached houses. This is a common hilly residential area that is repeated in other parts of Japan.
