The project of Charred Cedar House is located in Hiroshima and was designed by architect Tetsuya Nakazono under Naf Architects Design studio. The house consists of three very different levels. The first includes the entrance hall, master bedroom, a relaxing lounge and a bathroom, the second terrace has 360 degree-view of glass walls, and up in the third layer are living, dining and kitchen.
The first surprising thing is that this house has no conventional Japanese entrance to take off their shoes. Instead there is a mat that present as a lobby with a mantle of sand and a brick floor that shows the spiral staircase where we can go up to the other two levels.
Lower level of the house
At the lower level of the house features sand cushion brick-paved floor which leads directly to all the other rooms. The floor helps creating a semi-outside/semi-inside space in terms of material and nature of space which leads gradually to more private space. In this space we find the master bedroom, the tatami room, the bathroom and spiral staircase that leads to the upper floors. The hall, the mat and the master bedroom are divided with sliding doors, and the interesting thing is that when all these divisions are open, the room almost looks like it is from outside.
Second level of the house
The second level is an empty space that serves as a translucent and terrace. The space is circular and all the walls are made of glass. This makes it seems that the third level appears to be floating in parts. In the second floor, although it seems more accessible from the outside, is actually the least accessible part of the house. Stairwell is covered by FRP in the second layer and only light can be taken into the stairwell
Third level of the house
In this third “floating” level we can find the dining room and kitchen. This space features a wooden structure which gives a very natural touch, and gets even well with the visible wooden beams. This enclosed space resembles a small nest with small openings that are toasting the outside light.
