■ Sign & Information
First, let a child draw an image of a house. Most of the children will draw a gable like the one on the left. This means that the triangurar bable represents a typical “sign”for Japanese houses. However , modern life is impossible to conclude inside this kind of typical house because there are not enough information. It appears just as a symbolic “sign”.
Therefore I trim a corner from this “sign” and try to send information outside towards the urban city so that the house could function as part of the city.

■ Route & Map
The 20 century was an age to expres. Architects pursuit their style of expression and sometime it even meant the client to act a life inside the house. They tried to place specific elements of function inside the frame or the house, in order to create a“Route” for their lifestyle. The plan of this house is intends to be equarl to the urban city , which means that the client choose their own function from the shelf. The function is just left open for the user to select. Therefore it is equivalent to the idear of a“Map”.

■ In & Out - Stage
The actual operation is to let the client live in between outer space and inner space. This movement will bring in the factor of unbalanced action into space and will create something llike a “Stage”inside the house.
This stabe is just a continuation of sequences which differs itself from having to do different activities in a same space like what the modernist did.
