House with a Doma｜Introduction to Architecture Firms｜A Rich Transitional Space Connecting Interior and Exterior
Author: Qurasuki Editorial Department
The doma — a traditional earthen-floored space found in Japanese dwellings — possesses a depth of character that allows it to adapt readily to contemporary lifestyles. As a multifunctional zone, it can accommodate bicycle and tool storage, serve as a gardening workshop, or operate as an outdoor living area for receiving family and guests. The ways in which a doma is used expand according to the occupants’ way of life. Choices of materials and ceiling heights significantly influence the doma’s atmosphere. Here we introduce architectural firms that have elevated the doma into a distinctive element of the home.
