House in Tama / Cheng Hao Chung Architect
Briefly

The house in Tama, straddling Kanagawa and Tokyo, is designed to embrace its natural setting with a central concrete core surrounded by strategically placed freestanding walls. These walls not only create a heavy yet abstract aesthetic but also enhance the spatial experience by blurring lines between inside and outside. Featuring a sunken living area and basement, the design fosters both openness and privacy. Skylights provide an ethereal light quality, reflecting the home's intention to create a harmonious, tranquil space amidst a dense neighborhood.
The house skillfully integrates into its environment, utilizing natural light and creating a dimensional interplay between interior spaces and the exterior landscape.
Grounded by a central concrete core, the design uses freestanding walls to dissolve traditional boundaries, invoking a sense of mystery and heavy presence.
