A home on a corner lot capitalizes on the characteristics of a site facing two roads, allowing for a design that considers light, wind, and connection with the town. Facing multiple roads creates options for the placement of openings and approaches, potentially creating a bright and open living space. On the other hand, it is important to pay attention to external lines of sight, car noise, and sunlight, combining windows, walls, and plantings to create a comfortable sense of distance. Through the traffic flow and garden layouts utilizing the two-sided road, you can also forge an impressive presence against the town. We introduce corner-lot homes that leverage light and openness unique to corner plots to comfortably tune the distance from the town.
