YES, space is premium in japan. but government has laws how much of the site you can exactly build. such a small site like this will have barely any to build with after meeting all the bylaws which i can only imagine the architect used all. it must have been a headache to make it livable. much respect to the architect. (also nice to see the white. may not flow with the neighborhood but the whole point is making it pop out since it's a very small house) wow, just wow.. there are so many people who have no idea about architecture but just love to play their mouth.

Well said. When I visited Japan in 2007 for our University Architecture trip (From New Zealand), I was captivated by homes like these found in the narrowest of streets in Tokyo. There are many restictions to the point where if you can gat anything on a site like this then you're very lucky, let alone something architecturally designed. It's a huge challenge and respect to the architect! Bravo Peter! Well said.

In my opinion houses of these kinds sell better as villaes with vaster outdoor-areas/gardens so that they can stand out in uniqness solely alone - not interfering with neighbour-structures.

A reason for the orientation would be that it best captures the sun this way. Also the tweaked angle gives it a real sense of arrival when driving up to it. Why is there no windows on the other side? most councils have a law about over looking other property, especially if the existing building has exposed windows (look at the second image again). A architect maybe able to design in some obscured glass or translucent glass. But this designer has opted to leave it bear. I think it makes it very expressive and interesting. P.S. do you know if the owner enjoys the home? do you understand the cultural inclinations? do you understand the nature of the building's site? Do you understand the constraints on the construction? Think about it...take whats interesting about it...not wether you plan to buy it or not. This is a design website...not a better homes and gardens magzine you can have an opinion…but don’t express it with out having a reason for why to think it / insightful criticism.
