The site is at the end of the valley located on the Miura Hills near Kamakura. The retaining wall is bright due to sunlight, and the surrounding vegetation grows well. The owners who are the contemporary artists loved the site environment. The house design is the editing study between the site environment and dweller’s lifestyle. We tried to make some self-build materials with the dwellers. The elements which are retaining walls, structural members, self-build materials, are connected each other incompletely. It creates opportunities for feeling their life on the site.
