House in Hattori-tenjin / Akio Isshiki Architects
The way children perceive space may be slightly different from how we adults perceive it. That's what I thought as I casually watched the client's daughters play with toys. Toy furniture could no longer fit inside the red-roofed house, so they gathered up the tables and refrigerators that were sticking out and arranged them on the flooring. Sometimes, it became a dining room under the blue sky or a study room where children came home from school and did their homework together. They also brought Lego blocks and other toys, and the improvised room continued to expand. It was a one-day house for a family drawn by children who cannot read blueprints.
