We decided to renovate this section of the house after my marriage. This section of the house was originally designed by the architect Mr. Masao Hayakawa and built in 1986. It is renovated by the design of the architect Mr. Toshihito Yokouchi who is my wife's father. My wife says "I grew up in the house by my father's design, so I knew how comfortable his design is to live in. I was really looking forward to complete the construction". The natural materials are used plentifully in the house, so that longer we live, more beautiful it will become. His design pays great attention to connect the house and garden, so we can see out into lushly green and beautiful garden from all the windows. Seeing the crisp morning garden when I wake up make me feel very relaxed. It makes me feel that I am living in the nature everyday, and I am looking forward to the life ahead with this house.
