searched but didn't find this posted.

Japanese architect was given 2 specific instructions for building this house:
- it had to contain a garage with enough place for 9 cars and the possibility of viewing one of them directly in the living room.
- a tall tree had to fit in the house.

Not an easy job but Takuya Tsuchida did it in 2000 square feet, and managed to satisfy his client!



he built a 2-story building with basement and an elevator to move a car from the garage to the living room.

I'm loving this kind of architecture but I'm not sure I would want to live in it.
