Mt. Funaoaka, located in Murasakino, Kita Ward of Kyoto City, has been revered as a sacred and pure land since ancient times. Adored by aristocrats of the Heian period as a place for strolls, picking wild vegetables, and poetic pursuits, it is celebrated in literature such as "The Pillow Book" by Sei Shonagon.
The architect of this property, Goro Masuda, hails from Kyoto Prefecture and currently resides in Okinawa Prefecture. Given Funaoaka's history as a site of aristocratic leisure and entertainment during the Heian period, Masuda envisioned a residence where hobbies could be fully enjoyed. He also believed that it would be fitting to incorporate the warmth of his birthplace, Kyoto, with the tropical ambiance of Okinawa into the design.
間取
The spacious layout of this home is perfect for a family of 3. One distinctive feature is the large bookshelf in the Western-style room on the 2nd floor. It's a leisure place for you to indulge in reading while admiring your favorite books or displaying your collections, while the room on the east side of the 2nd floor with a desk is suitable for remote work.
The 1st floor features an open-plan living-dining-kitchen area, making it easy for family members to communicate while doing household chores.
こだわりのポイント
-
Practicality with Okinawan Materials
The interior uses materials from Okinawa, such as Ryukyu limestone and Gettoushi Japanese paper. Ryukyu limestone, a representative stone of Okinawa, has been used in traditional Okinawan houses and structures like Shuri Castle. Gettoushi paper, made from the perennial plant Shell Ginger (Gettou) found in Okinawa, is used for wallpapers with insect-repellent and antibacterial properties.
-
Impressive Flower Blocks
The "flower blocks" are concrete blocks with hollow patterns that can be commonly seen in Okinawan buildings. Not only with aesthetic design, they also provide shade under the sun, create shadows, and allow airflow, which all moderate the subtropical climate. Living in Kyoto while experiencing the essence of Okinawan architecture adds a unique touch to this property.
-
Fill the Large Shelves with Your Favorites
The 2nd floor Western-style room has a sloped ceiling with the beams exposed.
The eye-catching wall-length shelves can be used to display not only books but also miscellaneous items, figures, and hobby-related belongings.
-
Expansive LDK with connective Ceiling and Floor
The living-dining area boasts a spacious design where the ceiling and floor align linearly, accentuating the warmth of wood and extending towards the garden.
-
Guardian in the Garden
The traditional Okinawan guardian figure, Shisa, serves as the protector of this home.
It is believed that having Shisa at home helps prevent disasters and keeps evil spirits away, thus ensuring the long-term well-being of the family.
