Homes with Gardens|Introduction to Architecture Firms|The Enrichment of Living with Greenery
Author: Qurasuki Editorial Department
Tending plants and spending time with the soil while experiencing the changing seasons brings a quiet richness to daily life. Creating a home with a garden requires careful design of the relationship between the building and the outdoor space. How the garden is viewed from each room, the design of openings that connect interior and exterior, and the placement of eaves and terraces that allow one to feel the greenery even on rainy days — these architectural strategies determine the quality of living with a garden. Here we introduce architectural practices that have realized rich residential environments in which building and garden are integrated as one.
