這間位于東京市郊的住宅，外觀猶如巨型白色立方，十分搶眼。Little House with a Big Terrace的屋主要求能夠在太陽底下做瑜珈，建筑師于是細心思量，在有限的空間劃出陽臺，探索東京住宅戶外空間的各種可能。二樓的客廳與陽臺相連，中間以玻璃幕墻分隔，將陽光引入室內。面向鄰居的實心墻為屋主保留一定程度的私隱。為了補償興建陽臺而失去的室內空間，一樓和二樓中間加設閣樓，增加實用空間以便貯物。

The gigantic white cube stands eerily in suburban Tokyo. In Little House with a Big Terrace, architect proves that a spacious external space is possible in a modest residence, and as such, expanding the possibilities of outdoor activity. The big outdoor terrace fulfils the client’s request to do yoga under the sun.The living room opens to the terrace, separated by a large glass panel, bringing natural lights in while opening up indoor space to outside. The windowless wall directed towards the neighbouring building provides a degree of privacy. To make up for the lost of indoor space, an attic was inserted between the first floor and the second to increase the amount of practicable space for storage.
