This modern small house design ideas created for a couple, child, and cat, designed by Form Kouichi Kimura Architects in Aichi, Japan. The external appearance is established by assembling several volumes and laying out colors. The stairway and open ceiling, which are positioned in the center as the core of the building, are surrounded by each room and courtyard. The material, color, and light that match each room are selected to strongly express the space’s design. As a result, the space sterically rises and horizontally creates migration, which mixes variety of material textures, colors, and lights together, succeeding in generating various feelings.
