‘dg house’ by japanese geneto studio is a private house in a residential area in tokyo. the composition was decided by associating the client’s ‘scenes of daily life’, with the context being thought from the site and laying it out in three dimensions.

some private rooms are on the ground floor and the second floor is made as one big room, dividing each space with furniture.

in ‘dg house’ the studio thought of furniture as volumes to produce various areas rather than functional furniture. the structured volumes are made with a 24mm plywood frame. it can be seen as one mass as it has been painted black, keeping the feeling of wood when it is viewed closely.

all of the furniture has been produced in the studio’s factory
