“WRAP之家”是将阳光、宽敞的感觉和隐私三要素组合在一起，以丰富生活空间。该网站位于广岛市西南部的一个住宅小区。由于场地来自四面八方，被房屋包围，其中之一是与场地边界直接接壤的房屋，因此有必要提出以下的建筑安排。

‘WRAP HOUSE’ is grouping and wrapping the three elements sunlight, spacious sense and privacy to enrich the living space. The site is located in a flat residential quarter in the Southwest of Hiroshima City. As the site is from all sides surrounded by houses, one of which is directly bordering the site boundary, it was necessary to come up with the following architectural arrangement.

尽管网站受到限制，但为了在保护个人隐私的同时创造一个明亮而广阔的空间，一堵墙围绕着整个网站，在北侧形成了一个“空隙”，同时也尊重了允许的建筑面积比例。北向居住空间由一个露台延伸而来，该露台与停车位相邻，而面向北面的街道。此外，考虑到西邻房屋的自然阳光条件，选择了倾斜屋顶，东侧的“空隙”周围有一堵v形墙。因此，阳光在早晨射入了空隙，形成了一个“阳光井”。收集到的阳光被一堵白色的墙反射出来，轻轻地照亮了房间。清晨，阳光从东方进入虚空。当太阳升得更远时，它会透过上面的窗户发亮，当太阳开始衰退时，光线就会从天窗里射出来。

To create a bright and wide space while protecting one’s privacy despite the site’s restrictions, a wall wraps around the full site creating a ‘void’ on the north side while respecting the permitted floor area ratio. The north orientated living space is extended by a terrace, which is located adjacent to the parking space while facing the street to the north. In addition, considering the natural sunlight conditions for the neighboring house to the west, a pitched roof was chosen and a v-shaped wall is surrounding the ‘void’ on the east side. As a result, sunlight shines into the void in the morning and a ‘sunlight well’ is created. The collected sunlight is reflected by a white wall, and illuminates the room gently. In the early morning, sunlight enters the void from the east. As the sun rises further it shines through the upper window, and when the sun begins to decline light falls through the skylights.

因此，当光线从日出进入日落的方式不断变化时，空间就会随着时间的流动而变化。夜幕降临时，对角线上的墙出现了，而周围的景色却消失了。一个不同于白天的空间出现了。外部的空隙空间被认为是内部空间的延伸，而环绕墙既可以保护居住空间的隐私免受周围环境的影响，又能给人留下宽敞的印象。从一楼的浴室可以看到天空，而从主卧室可以俯瞰汽车。

Thus, as the way the light enters constantly changes from sunrise to sunset, the space changes with the flow of time. When the night comes, the diagonally cut wall appears while the scenery around it disappears. A space different to the daytime emerges. The external void space is perceived as an extension of the internal space, while the wrap-around wall is both protecting the privacy of the residence space against the surroundings and creating a spacious impression. The sky can be seen from the bathroom on first floor, while the car can be overlooked from the master bedroom.

居民和汽车的入口面向北面的道路，由墙的一部分构成，可以打开和关闭，提供进入空隙的通道。由对角线墙构成的天空延伸到顶部，一棵6米高的灰树穿过二楼的露台。这一北侧缓冲区，虽然不包括在合法的建筑足迹，发挥作用，最大限度地发挥网站的潜力。

The entrance for both residents and car is facing the road to the north and is formed by a part of the wall which can be opened and shut providing access to the void space. The sky framed by a diagonal wall extends to the top and an ash tree with a height of 6m penetrates the second floor terrace. This north side buffer zone, although not included in the legal building footprint, plays a role in maximizing the site’s potential.
