该遗址位于1930年左右开发的住宅区，向西倾斜，位于山的山坡上。伊科马，俯瞰大阪平原的市区。我们很好地观察到了老房子和重建房屋的马赛克图案，它们讲述了每一部八十多年的历史。

The site is in a residential area developed around 1930, sloping to the west on a hillside of Mt. Ikoma, which overlooks the urban area of Osaka Plain. We observed favorably the mosaic pattern of old and rebuilt houses telling each history of over eighty years.

要找出使房子与周围环境相协调的方法并不容易，因为场地离道路有3.5米远，所以房子看起来比实际的尺寸还要大。我们通过一步地进行设计，寻找一种适合于周围环境的房子的建造方法。

It was not easy to find out the way for making the house coordinated to the surroundings as the site is 3.5m up from the road so that the house would look larger than the actual size. We proceeded with the design by making places step by step searching an appropriate way of building the house that adapt to surrounding environments.

首先，我们用小裂劳兰的模板制作了质地粗糙的混凝土墙，与周围环境中的旧砖墙和混凝土砌块墙相匹配，并覆盖了类似于邻里房屋屋顶形式的黑色原型房屋结构。在此之后，以翻新室内空间的方式创造居住空间。用来维持日常生活的空间，如厨房和浴室，是在混凝土墙和房子后面的悬崖挡土墙之间建造的，上面覆盖着半透明的倾斜屋顶和木制的门窗。威尼斯人的百叶窗帮助居民避免被看到，并控制他们的隐私。

First, we made concrete walls with rough texture by using formwork made by small split lauan to match with old masonry walls and concrete-block walls in surrounding environments, and covered those with a black archetypical house structure following the roof form of houses in the neighborhood. After that, living space is made in the way as renovating interior space. The space for facilities to support the daily life such as a kitchen and a bathroom is made in between the concrete walls and the cliff-retaining wall behind the house, covered with a translucent lean-to roof and wooden windows and doors. The Venetian window blinds help residents to avoid to be seen and control their privacy.

在道路一侧，一个薄薄的、现代的平顶，代表着一种新的生活方式，它覆盖了日本建筑工地通常用于临时围护的钢板制成的盒子，假装正在施工中的建筑工地的气氛。由木山明(Akane Moriyama)设计的窗帘的透明、多彩的面料重叠，使儿童房间的深度和美丽的层次变得更深、更美观，该房间位于盒子和平顶之间。

On the road side, a thin, modern flat-roof, which represents a new life style covers the box made of steel plates commonly used for temporary enclosure at construction sites in Japan, pretending atmosphere of ongoing construction sites. The overlap of transparent colorful fabrics of the curtain designed by Akane Moriyama makes depth and beautiful gradation in a child’s room, which is situated between the box and the flat roof.

这些结果产生了与“前”和“后”都相关的场所。在不同的时间轴相交的空间有“混凝土墙”和“黑色房屋式”、“混凝土墙”和“挡土墙”、“白色平顶”和“钢板箱”。

These resulted in making places that are related to both “before” and “ after”. Living places are provided in space where different time-axes meet as “concrete walls” and “ a black house-type,” “concrete walls” and “a retaining wall,” and “a white flat-roof” and “boxes of steel plates.”
