Void Interior Structure – Knot House by Apollo Architects & Associates
Sited in a corner on a hill within a residential area of Tokyo, the house is designed to fulfill the owner love of interior design, photography and mountaineering. This compact house makes use of the half-floor difference in height between the front and back of the site, connected by the skip floor system. Positioned adjacent to those spaces are a courtyard and a void space which, together with the skip floor structure that induces a vertical continuity, create a gentle horizontal connection. The alternating courtyard and void afford a sense of depth and expansion to the spaces, allowing for all the floors from the basement to the first to be experienced as one space connected vertically and horizontally. The simple exterior reminiscent of a drawer pulled out from a box is composed of concrete and glass.
