The site is located in an old city in Japan, where many private houses stand in a row. The site size has a depth of 50m and width of 7.5m. One of two narrow frontages faces a street and the other faces a river. Eastern Design Office designed a long wall that encloses this narrow and long site. The slits open this enclosure. An 80 years old woman lives in this house. The house presents her a life space with soft light and an interesting experience of scale that's unlikely in a house.
