We visited the home of architect Toshihiro Tanaka, "Kunitachi House." When planning a home for a family of four on a small suburban lot, Toshihiro Tanaka had seven conditions in mind. (● Spacious family room ● Separate guest room ● Small study ● Ample storage ● Planned garden (greenery) ● A home that takes the neighbors into consideration ● An economical home that meets all of the above) He explained that he designed the home to meet the seven conditions on a small lot with strict restrictions on area and height, and that "There is more than just one home," and that "a town is made up of houses. If both the creators and the residents can have this awareness, living in the town will no longer be stressful, and the home will have a gentle feel and the town will be rich in nature." Please take a look at the video of Toshihiro Tanaka's home, who has been faithfully dealing with people, towns, and homes for many years as an architect, and has been striving to build homes that also take nature and the global environment into consideration. The "Tanaka Toshihiro Chair Exhibition" will be held at the Ginza art gallery "Gallery Seiho" from Tuesday, September 24 to Saturday, October 5, 2024. Please also take a look at the video that provides detailed information about Tanaka's chair making. • [Chairs by architect Toshihiro Tanaka] Exhibition at Gallery Seiho in Ginza Period ...

Photo: October 2023 [Collaboration between Toshihiro Tanaka and Aiba Construction] Architect Toshihiro Tanaka and Aiba Construction worked together on the town development and home building of the condominium project "Solar Town Nishi Tokorozawa (Tokorozawa City, Saitama Prefecture / 22 buildings in total)". While involved in the town development plan, Toshihiro Tanaka summarized his own hand-made wooden block print designs and thoughts on home and town development in his picture book "The Three Houses Across the Streets" Solar Town Nishitokorozawa was designed by Toshihiro Tanaka with the idea of ​​"good relationships with neighbors," and was carefully designed to open generously to the town while closing off gently, with just the right distance between families and houses that are considerate of each other. After moving in, residents naturally start to interact with each other, watch over each other's children as they grow up, and barbecues and dinner parties are held several times a year, making it a warm community. --- ????
