Buy now from null Built no wider than a parking space in the heart of Tokyo, the striking 6 Tsubo House stands out among the more traditional houses on the narrow street. Arte-1 Architect's designed the 56 square metres, three storey home based on a brief for a small but open house with a connection to the outdoors. To maximise space in the home, rooms on the upper levels were staggered, allowing a 5m high ceiling in the living space and additional storage within the stairway and underneath the kitchen. The staircase itself winds up through the home's fully equipped kitchen and generous main bathroom where instead of partitioning spaces, Arte-1 has created separation using colour and materials, giving each space a unique ambience. These carefully considered choices make this small building a truly functional home for a family; with priority given to simple things like room for children to play, and a cosy living & dining area. #smallapartment #architecture #interiordesign Project Name: 6 Tsubo House Architect: https://www.arte-1.com/ Produced by New Mac Video Agency Creator: Colin Chee Director: Nam Tran Cinematographer: Nam Tran Producer: Lindsay Barnard Editor: Sebastian Tibbs Music: Grace by Dear Gravity and Horizon by Dear Gravity
