Innovative Multi-Level Residence: Three-Storey Home That Blurs Above and Below Ground

Discover an architectural masterpiece in Yokohama, Japan—a home that challenges conventional design by seamlessly blending underground and above-ground living. Designed by Takeshi Hosaka Architects, this unique house is built on a compact 30m² site, surrounded by existing buildings and a towering 3-meter retaining wall. Despite these constraints, the design maximizes natural light, ventilation, and spatial efficiency. With a basement and two floors above ground, each level maintains equal ceiling heights, creating a sense of openness. Cleverly bent floor slabs allow light and wind to reach all levels, while strategically placed windows provide stunning views of the surrounding greenery. The result is a home where interior and exterior, above and below ground, merge into one fluid space. Join us as we explore the fascinating design solutions that make this house not just a place to live, but a true architectural wonder.
