This building is designed after the Hanshin earthquake in 1995. it is a 4 story building with 4×4  dimensions. house is encased in concrete. The bedrooms are located on the middle floors, and the kitchen and living room are located on the top floor. It is placed in this order not without meaning. It could be said it is an example of Jataku houses. The design of the last floor is a 4×4 cube that is off-centered by 1 meter towards the water. After the first one is built the neighbor asked Ando to build one for him, so Ando designed the same house but it is made with different materials.

I really like how the house looks like it has a modern feel and same time it feels like there is not a lot of room. I would like to visit the building if I have a chance and look out into the ocean from the top floor.
