House to Enjoy Under-Eaves Space

A home that enjoys eaves space utilizes the semi-outdoor area created beneath roofs as part of daily living. Deep eaves soften sunlight and rain, generating times to sit on chairs in the garden or on terraces or open windows to feel the breeze. Providing eaves space between indoors and the garden creates an intermediate zone resistant to weather, naturally bridging inside and out. Combining this with wooden decking, plantings, or an engawa makes it a cozy spot to feel seasonal shifts close at hand. We introduce eaves-space homes that gently receive light and wind to enrich outdoor living times.
