Perched on the edge of a cliff on Japan’s remote Ikema Island, this house provides a meditative retreat with expansive views of the East China Sea. Built of concrete to withstand extreme weather, the architects detailed the home with traditional Japanese materials to soften its edges.

这座房子坐落在日本偏远的伊克马岛的悬崖边缘，提供了一处静坐的静修所，可以俯瞰东海。建筑师们用混凝土建造来抵御极端的天气，他们用传统的日本材料详细描述了房子的边缘。

To maximize water views and to manage privacy, the structure is divided into two levels: on ground level, a faceted concrete base houses the client’s entry, a carport, and mechanical spaces, while an upper level arrays living spaces – two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a kitchen, a dining area, a living room, and two tatami rooms – throughout a rectangular concrete volume. The interiors blend contemporary and traditional Japanese elements, including shoji screens, wood paneling, and tatami mats.

为了最大限度地利用水景和管理隐私，该结构分为两层：地面层面，一个平面混凝土底座容纳客户的入口、一个车库和机械空间，而上层阵列起居空间-两个卧室、两个浴室、一个厨房、一个餐厅、一个起居室和两个塔塔米房间-贯穿于矩形混凝土空间中。内部融合了当代和传统的日本元素，包括鞋印屏风，木镶板，和纹身垫。
