This untouched site, a 15-meter cypress forest with Izu Island views, creates a natural microclimate. The architecture balances sea openness with forest enclosure, harmonizing with its surroundings. Shaped by Mt. Omuro's lava 4,000 years ago, the area evolved into a residential zone with timeless design. The rectangular house, elevated 2 meters above ground, aligns with treetops and rests on slender 4.4-meter pillars echoing the forest's verticality. Inside, raw materials enhance the natural aesthetic, blending simplicity with precision.
