Human Nest?A house is an ultimate peaceful sanctuary. Perhaps, that is what most people think. However, in what people feel peaceful is different from each other. Thus it is not easy to share the same perception. So, when the session is fruitful, and bare the fruit that is even more interesting than what both have imagined, it would be most delightful. Working with this client gave me such a moment, and the real thrill of building a private home.“Please make me a nest of human.” We were bewildered by his words first.“From the entrance gate to the approach, and to the front door, from the living room to the kitchen and to the wood deck terrace, or to the upstairs, the flow is smooth, enabling us to be relaxed and comfortable in a peaceful place. That kind of house is my concept of an ideal home.Responding to the Desire and Giving a Shape to it“Building this house, with some wonderful coincidences in various senses happened, resulted in the best house, I feel.” The ground of the client who was a farmer was in the urbanization control area, and therefore, normal building permits were difficult to get. As an exception, a house for a farmer was allowed, but there were high voltage power lines running diagonally above, and no building was allowed below them. The ground left was a triangular shape.Fun Thoughts came into a Shape“I told the carpenters that I wanted them to have fun building this house. I was so glad to see them actually enjoying working on it, and I was very glad to feel that everyone was looking forward to the completion of this house. When I was operating the tractor loudly on field near the building site, I could still hear them laughing. I was convinced that a house built in this kind of atmosphere could never be an uncomfortable one”. The owner says that he now enjoys being home more than anything, and he feels supreme comfort when he is relaxing on the sofa in the living room after work. “I think it’s a good thing about a wooden house. Very soothing. I am also looking forward to seeing how the expressions of the wood will change as we live here for many years. When the trees in the garden become bigger, the impression of the house will be different, too. Next year, the year after next, 10, 20 years later how it would be refined and blended into the passage of time, I can't wait to see. I am enjoying living in this house every new days.”Time line of house building 2010 2012“Human Nest”202chapter 4“Human Nest”Time line of house building 2010 ____ 2012document
