Flagpole in Nakameguro House / SALHAUS

This tiny house is located in a densely populated area of central Tokyo. Forty-five square meters is not an extremely small lot in Tokyo, but a flag lot of this size is scarce. We thought it would be challenging to plan a house here when we first visited the site. Meanwhile, the client said it was just the right size for him. When we design a house, we usually try to find a general form that is not specific to the client’s sensibilities but can enjoy the maximum comfort of the site.
