The plan is to derive the basics of building fits the subtropical environmental characteristics and to create an impression to be an icon of an urban residence. Slit openings in gate-shape structure bringing brightness and breeze are visualized in light and shadow. It creates a sense of openness while avoiding gaze by urban surroundings. The architecture consists of the living space as a vertical structure and the angled wall encloses the garden to fit the site. Terrace and gardens in this simple architecture add light and shadow changing constantly.
