A house for a typical young family with two kids. The site is at the middle of a residential area. Because of the sloping site, the main floor of the house is raised to the north side of the street. A flat and solid volume is put on the site and is perforated by three courtyards with different characters. This perforation introduces a valuable condition into the solid object. The green court connects the ground floor parking to the main floor level to avoid the dark and depressing north side streets atmosphere. The stone court made out of big stones dug out from the site is connecting the entrance to the roof. The water court leads sun light into the bathroom and family room. Consequently the various living places arranged around the court have a continuous feeling and create close visual contact with each other.
