view of the lift which moves between the living room and garage

KRE house by japanese architect takuya tsuchida is a 2 1/2 storey, single family residence,
located in shinagawa-tu, tokyo.

the client's design brief for the project was that it needed to include a nine-car garage,
with the possibility of viewing one from living room. the other was that a tall tree needed
to be placed within the house. tsuchida was given only 2000 square feet to work with,
but his design has included a car lift which moves a car from the garage to the living room,
fulfilling one of his client's requests. here, the classic lamborghini becomes the centerpiece
within this modern home.
