Good god, this is astonishing mate. The interior is so warm and calming, it's the perfect space to de-stress and relax! The garden is the icing on the cake.
Can't wait to see it in person! Congratulations to you and the family 🥳🥳🥳
Like a magic as expected!
Abroad inviting himself as usual
I heard you were sick. Aren't you supposed to be resting, Mouse?
@@Alamklin lmfao
Do you have any plans on building a house in Japan or back in the UK?
It’s beautiful~
Thank you Aki! Now that it's finished I can't wait to have you and Joey out!!
Can't wait for the twins to trash it! No seriously! It'll be a treasure trove of memories!
Can't wait for that video!!
@@Dogen how much did everything cost including the land. I’m looking at building a house in Japan I’ll be there in April
This is just so, so much better than the usual "RUclipsr/Influencer" houses we see going around RUclips right now. It looks cozy, warm, and filled with personality and thought behind the design. Congrats man, this house has probably just became the dream house of thousands of viewers.
It's still a RUclipsr/influencer house tho. Why do we watch this shit?
@@MrDanieloneill who said it isn't? read again
The house is cramped, not cozy. Glad I'm not his kids, sharing a prison cell
@@ericsoho well me and my husband would love to live there. and our roomate could go into the guestroom. but seriously... the privacy factor for his children is basically zero
@@ericsoho I believe the idea behind the small spaces is to subconsciously drive people to the larger, more open areas. Perhaps a good future video would be the architect's first-person description of the various aspects of the house.
As an architectural student, I REALLY like the approach you and the architects took. It is still very fonctionnal like the modern japanese housing yet it keeps the beauty, the scenographic journey in which you discover as a visitor or the owner. I think you chose a firm that has a lot of concerns in creating comfortable houses for families, and the results are outstanding!
please dont ever get a job in the field
@@degayify why?
@@degayify I'm curious as to why? I have an interior architecture degree but I am not currently working in the field. Not sure if I will anytime soon
"Scenography journey". That's exactly what I've been trying to articulate regarding my adoration for traditional Japanese housing.
New life goals:
- Get invited to sleep over at Dogen's house
- Build a house like Dogen's
Me too 😯
I want this house in the US, but this going to be so expensive
I just want to know how much it actually cost.
ive never been to japan, but one day. or ill build this house in Perth, western australia
@@aussiebear738 Yo same in colorado maybe or somewhere in the U.S.
Can’t wait to visit man! Massive congratulations!!
Yoo, didnt expect my favourite underground artist Ikurru to watch dogen, nice!
Thanks so much dude, looking forward to having you and Aki over! Enjoy the rest of your time in the UK-will be waiting in nippon with a big warm onsen for you guys!
josh!!!
oh josh the manga lad is here
Who?
これは、日本人から見ても、非常に素晴らしいお家です！✨日本人以上に、日本文化への愛情を感じました。配色が優しく、とても安らぎます。特に、中庭が最高です👍いつか、こんなお家に住みたいです。
Im Japanese and this is one of the most beautiful houses I’ve ever seen. What an incredible combination of western and Japanese culture
Oh my god, this is beyond beautiful. So much thought must have gone into every inch of the space, it looks AMAZING. Congratulations 👏🏻 👏🏻😵
Thank you Emma! Can’t wait to chill here!
What an EPIC project!!
Well worth all the time we put into documenting it
Thanka for the past half year man!!
And congrats on the beautiful new home!
Thank you for helping to invest the time to document and show this amazing house and its development!
I wanna know where Norm got that cool black bomber jacket though
Norm has the high ground!! ww
@@Vinz013 Lol, now a tricking lightsaber battle between Norm and Dogen would be a sight!
@Karen Hodgens Not every house is a stonks game. Some people just want a house that works for them and their family and enjoy living in it because it's for them. Even houses in the US have slab leaks and other problems that just come with the responsibility of home-ownership.
As an architect I can say, those are some of best detailed window I ever seen in my career.
I swear, Japanese contracors are the best, everything you see is so clean and no mess is left behind after the job is done (Paint, cement, gypsum, etc.), even if the work is so simple, yet their craftsmanship is sublime.
I'm living for this era of "I moved to Japan" "I built my dream house in Japan" "I'm chasing my dream in Japan" videos
I had to leave Japan during Covid and now all these RUclipsrs are moving and living their dreams there :(
I feel like Roger who found the One Piece too early lol
Instantly requires a how-to on affording this dream too!
You have to keep in mind that living in Japan, like all countries, has its ups and downs. RUclipsrs only tend to show the positive side of living here. The reality can be less glamorous. Not wanting to sound too negative but remember to keep a balanced perspective on the idea of living in Japan.
@@MSJChem That's what I love about Dogen and Norm, they are open to pointing out Japan as a real place and not as some idealistic utopia. But there are realistically some people in the world that, upon moving to a different country, do find that life-change to be a net-positive for them. Of course not everyone or every country are a match for each other.
@@MSJChem Yes I agree but I know, I was there. But personally the goods far outweighted the bads, especially when compared to where I am now.
Beautiful, beautiful house. That kitchen sliding door opening on to the courtyard garden is perfect, plus all the wood, and love the blend of traditional and modern - congratulations!
I was going to suggest to you and @Dogen to do a video together as I think it would be interesting ;-)
@@elliotjay2273 Oh yes, that would be awesome to see!
It's not a competetion but your shikkui application seems smoother. You criticize your work too much :)
When Dogen was talking about the snow-viewing shouji I was like, "Hey, I learned about those from another youtuber!" 😜
Lol the king of Japanese house renovation has come!
Dude I am equal parts jealous and happy for you. That house is SO COOL. I'd call it "goals" for sure.
Carci what are you doing here! :)😀
Agree
個人的にモノトーンを基調とした現代日本の建築より木の温もりや和を感じられる家が好きで、特に日本家屋があり庭には桜の木や小池がある組み合わせが好きで道元さんの家は現代と昔を絶妙にマッチさせてて最高過ぎる😂
Its gorgeous man, I am so happy for you and am striving for something similar one day! おめでとうございます！
100 percent agree!
CONGRATULATIONS DOGEN!!! that is so lovely, omg. warm housewarming wishes to you and your family in your new home!!!!
Didn't expect to see you here. A surprise, but a welcome one, for sure.
Thanks so much Girl! Your support means a lot!
What an unexpected but peasant surprise !
The world sure is small 😆

Seriously beautiful... this place is ridiculously nice! Congrats to you and your family!
Sweet! You're here too!
The crossover we need...
What the... Arkada! Worlds collide!
😮 What an awesome house
I never realized an elevated ventilation fan in the kitchen is what I want
Ayo it's WIL no way
@@tamegaming1768 Every RUclipsr based in Japan is showing up in this comments section haha
You'll have to come over there and give them some delicious saturated fat based recipes
Thanks so much dude! Would love to have you over!
There's a swiss system which sucks the air in right next to the stove. No need to fly up till the sailing.
Can't wrap my head around having a guest room larger than my 2 daughters' single room, the transitions are lovely though
Feels like I am the only one who got feelings of claustrophobia while watching this video. It just feels so cramped and small. I am a tall and big guy so I'd never be able to fit myself in here. Just watching these 3 buddies trying to navigate the narrowness of this house was funny.
@@anantsharma7955 I felt the same.. The house is truly gorgeous in design but even through the screen I personally feel very uneasy and cramped by the space
Yes, I also thought it was very cramped. There's also a lot of opening things to access other things that would get exhausting after a while. The architecture is beautiful, but the space has to be bigger. Also, walking across the whole house to access my wardrobe? Nuh uh
@@anantsharma7955 well it does give you the ultimate japanese experience.
@@anantsharma7955 you're not the only one bro. we have storage rooms of this much hieght here in india,lol.
I always had this idea that I'd want to design my own house but after seeing this I'd rather let pros handle it. They did such a great job, I love all the window access into the central garden and the overall layout. Grats Dogen!
i think the architect and he were more of a team
I love the privacy of the courtyard in the middle! Houses being like a foot away from each other is what I don’t like about the houses in Japan, but you managed to create your own space and it’s so beautiful too
Hey Dogen, I am studying architecture in Germany, and one complicated question we always face is, how to insulate the building walls depending on their thickness and material. In your case, the kitchen wall to the inner garden has two layers of paper walls and two layers of windows. Extend these outside, and two spaces within the wall appear. What did the architect do to avoid energy (heath) loss at this particular wall? Especially when it's cold outside, moisture can appear at these places if not insulated properly. Can you tell us about the walls structure and maybe how the architect solves this problem?
It's a technical question, yeah. Heh.
I would be interested in this as well!!
I am very interested in this.
Hi, I graduated architecture school and currently work as a designer.
edit: looking at the video more closely, i think there's a 'wall' in between the screen doors and the glass doors and that's probably where they're mitigating that energy loss. It also seems to be the case when they do the courtyard shot and you can see the door wall protrudes from the exterior wall to fit the glass doors inside of it. The wall itself is unusually thick for these reasons (you can see at 10:29) .
To answer your question: it's likely just a point of energy loss (as is with any sorts of large windows and openings). The wall is likely not insulated and is just covered with some layers of finish and sheathing. Pocket doors are usually used on interior walls for this reason (and many others including sound, build, hardware, etc.). A pocket door is more like the width of two doors, with the second 'door' opening covered under the finish wall. Moisture shouldn't be a problem if the building is properly sealed with WRB and SAF at the pocket. The inside pocket is likely also entirely finished and sealed with any rails that the doors need to slide in and out of. So if the contractor and architect has done their work properly, there should be no moisture penetrating through these openings. (if you're further interested in this you can google 'pocket door section/detail')
I had a seminar about that (also from Germany): basically japanese architecture always counts for some points to just lose a lot of heating energy.
In this case the idea behind the big window in the kitchen, is that cooking itself is going to generate a lot of heat and that's why you won't have to care too much about that, especially because the kitchen (in contrary to what a lot of german houses have) is just the kitchen, without any other centralized room inside (like for example a living room directly attached to it), so you're not gonna stay there for a lot of time anyway.
What actually feels really foreign to me, is the fact that they don't have specific wardrobes in their room and also the living room kinda doesn't exist (as an European I could never imagine that).
@@A_d_e_k The living room does exist, it is just attached to the kitchen. Thats not uncommon in Europe either.
ビフォーアフターで観るようなお洒落な家だなぁ。いつかこういう感じの家建てたい。
I love 3 men talking about the fact you don't need a closet in your room. :D :D :D :D
the word "hyperfunctional" just gained new meanings for me. this house is balanced perfectly and thoughtfully in all grounds, every milimeter cubic space is used in the most functional sense and it's elegant, it doesn't have anything unnecessary and it doesn't lack a critical part. compared to that, the suburb concrete jungle most people live in here seems wasteful in all accounts but the population density.
Your soliloquy was exceptional.
This house has a "Lofi"-Vibe. It feels incredibly calm.
これは日本人でも羨ましい素敵な家だわ…🥹
素敵なご自宅ですね！
石造の温泉にとても惹かれました。中庭の大きな窓を障子にされたのも“侘び寂び”を感じて凄く魅力的です。
日本語字幕有難うございます！
Wow, it’s amazing to see it all finished! When I visited you 6 months ago the house was totally different. Beautiful!
You used to be into martial arts and tricking Dogen? I humbly request, your finest backflip
Iirc, he had to quit due to training injuries and hasn't done it for years at this point. So it's probably better for him to not yeet himself backwards nowadays
just check out the earliest video on this channel
Hi Ross
Didn't expect to see you here
He was a technician. I learned how to do a btwist and a 540 from Dogen. I also learned my first Japanese and developed and interest in Japanese Aesthetics. Now I have 3 kids and haven't done a flip in a while either. It's been a wild, and good ride.
He looks like he would split in half if he tripped.
Love all the wood. It all feels like a very nice Japanese double wide trailer.
なんて素晴らしい環境だろう...感動しました。私は和室が好きで古民家に住んだこともありますが、冬は寒すぎて電気代が多くかかりました。リラックスするだけでなく、創作活動をするのに本当に最高の場所ですね。
羨ましいです。
日本の良いところをたくさん教えてくれて本当にありがとう。なんだか元気が出ました。
Dogen using japanese words to explain things even though he's a native English speaker is so precious. I do it all the time too lol
Dogen is now so Nihongo Jouzu that he is transcending the ability to speak English. Observe the way he pluralises the word "house". The next step is to abandon pluralisation altogether.
Thanks to everyone that helped make this project possible!

日本人でもなかなか住めない素敵な家。
お幸せに！
As an architectural designer this has to bring the biggest smile to the person who designed the home. To have the client (in this case Dogen) talk so highly of the house and be happy with it has to be the most gratifing feeling ever. Honestly an amazing home, just by looking at it you can tell it has a warm cozy feeling and so functional. Hope you enjoy it for many many years Dogen.
素敵なお家ですね！おめでとうございます！🎉
和風建築の意匠は残したまま現代の利便性をちゃんと確保しているのマジで理想的な家ですね
i like the architecture, but damn the place seems so small with the rooms all being small as well. The only time it feels big and open is when you are in the kitchen/living room with the doors open to the courtyard. Maybe It's because I'm American and most of our houses are built to be more open with bigger rooms whereas Japanese houses aren't. If you kept the same architecture but made everything about 2x bigger, then the house would be perfect.
I think it perfectly frames the minimalism. I have a huge apartment too but it's filled with so much clutter that it distracts from the important stuff. I am not messy by any means but humans tend to put stuff into corners that are empty. I like the simplicity the house is able to give off. Especially when you're a creative you seem to be more inspired by clean, less cluttered areas than anything else (atleast for me as a video editor).
Wow this house is so coo- Wait you’re *THAT* Dogen!? Dude my ankles and front tucks aren’t total shit exclusively because of Dogentricks! Been watching your videos in Japan for a couple years and somehow it didn’t even occur to me that you were the same dogen from tricking / freerunning forums 15+ years ago. Thanks for everything!
Haha that’s me! And thank you so much for the support!
Yeah, I've been following Dogen for years, and for the same reasons. I first found him at Dogentricks and would watch all his videos and add his music yhay he recommended to my playlists. I'm glad to see that you're doing so well, Dogen! Your shorts are hilarious! Cheers!
Something that isn't getting enough mention, I feel, is the external walls of the interior garden, that burnt wood style is /beautiful/ and complements the house so well.
When you can't watch the video on any device you own. :( I really wanted to see Dogen's house.
Same. TokyoLens has it 🤙🏼
@@HaiTomVlog Thank you! Here I was thinking my RUclips was broken.

空調…大事。素敵な家ですね！木の温もりを感じます。
I love how he even turns a house tour into a Japanese lesson along the way
You didn't just build your dream house, this is my dream house as well. Wish my husband and I could afford something like this. I just totally feel the 'love the style of old japanese houses and the comfort of new ones' and you actually found a company that would give you exactly that. Absolute dream come true.
Don't frame yourself with "wish we could afford". Instead try "how can we afford it?" and creative juices will start flowing. I believe that you'll make it happen in the future!
@@m347f0x Thanks for your positive attitude, it's not really a problem of the finances and more of the fact, that my husband always says he never wants to build and live in a house 🙃 He despises the idea of not being able to move around, but we will see, maybe his wishes will change as he gets older, but I won't force him.
I did show him this video though and he had to agree on how awesome Dougens house is 😆😆 That's a start
@@captainkacke1651 I agree with you that that's an age thing. Someday he will want to settle in the nice place :)
Best of luck to you and have a nice day!
When Pewdiepie do another house tour tier list, I can definitely see this as an S Tier house, really amazing and everything looks really thought out! Congrats!
S tier is insulting because it's a triple S.
Woah, that's sick. It never occured to me that your YT channel was successful enough to allow projects like this. That's really great.
雰囲気がうつくしい❤️
"This video is unavailable on this device" what? Never seen that before
huh, seems to work today!
The finish of the courtyard walls is reminiscent of a traditional charred-wood technique that prevents rot and insect damage. I saw a carpenter in Kentucky who used Japanese and Korean construction methods to build his own homestead, and the idea stuck with me. Simply lovely. Congrats!
Yakisugi is the name, right? And you're referring to Mr. Chickadee in Kentucky..
I also noticed. So do you get black when you lean on it or touch unintentionally while watering the plants or so?
Does this man love his children?! Lol that guest bedroom was larger than their SHARED room... couldn't imagine building my own home but still making the kids share... especially if I have the room to make a guest room...
Just saying I wouldn't talk to my father after that for months I'd have been so pissed off and upset..I'd have felt like an afterthought.
Workmanship on this place is next level! Such quality of finish...it's impeccable!
Also the shared closet.
I grew up in a 4 person 3 bathroom household and long morning bathroom waiting times were a daily occurrence. The kids will have traffic jam in the morning and having to get your clothes two times a day seems so annoying, because they will 100% want to change in their room
@@Moeeppi oh Yuh I forgot to mention that.. can't believe they thought that wouldn't be awkward lol
My partner also mentioned she found it impossible to study at home without being away from everyone and all distraction to focus and thought the shared hallway study space seemed like a really unproductive space.. everyone is different though and it did look stunning if nothing else.
@@micabryant4513 I definitely agree, the hallway studying space feels more like a study room at a dorm to me and those were always terrible to study in ://
i was thinking the same, but i imagine his children are very young so that room is suitable tbh. When they get older, they could arrange it so that the parents have the ‘guest room’ and one of the daughters live in the parents current bedroom, leaving the originally shared room to the other daughter alone if that makes sense.
I always find it interesting to see English speakers who have been living in Japan for a long time, because they speak English with Japanese style.
Dogen, this house is amazing, it's beautiful and I'm so bloody jealous
But...
Your daughters are going to hate you when they're older for the lack of privacy!
When they're older, they can turn the one bedroom into two - I don't really get the lack of privacy?
With how the rooms are closed off, it won't be sound proof at all. For teenagers that's kinda important. Also not having your own closet to keep private items or being able to make sure you sister doesn't use your clothing unasked is also gonna bring a bit of friction.
their space is also quite small. There's more space for the guest than the daughters together
@@canwejustnot yep. And the guests have an entire en suite which won't be used often
I went and watched the Tokyo Lens one since this video was originally not working for me (it is now!) Still a wonderful glimpse into the design, construction, and "walkthrough" experiences. I once stayed with a host family in Japan whose father worked as a builder and he wore those traditional shoes and even the tradition outfit (baggy pants, wrapped top). There is truly a pride and uniqueness to building techniques like that.
Congrats on the house! Before you moved to the apartment in Beppu, I remember you talking about a house one day for the family. Thank you for blazing that trail
Same for me. Wonder if it's still encoding the video or something.
Same issue for me
@Dogen Help us, senpai!

Thanks dogen for sharing your life with us!
I have been watching you for years now, you have inspired me to follow my dreams to Japan, I’m not rich by far but I hope that even my small donation towards you along with my patreon subscription, will help you to stay living free with your family and to be able to continue working from home making your amazing videos.
Your awesome 👍
素敵！！私もこんな家住みたい！！中庭の使い方も凄くいいし、縁側あるの羨ましい。
Congratulations, your new house is absolutely beautiful. By coincidence, I have also just finished building my own dream house in Japan. Some of the aesthetic it similar, but yours definitely has more striking use of Traditional and Modern Japanese elements. (Ours is is more of a blend, although. Maybe more”rural-modern”..?). So…when are you going to show us the construction process vids??
Well, I’ve checked out your new house too. And I have to say, Dogen’s definitely cost more. But yours looks pretty sweet too. Ill head back and check out the demolition & framing etc vids later. Anyway, cool stuff. Now I just need my own dream house.
@@DoctorEbot Thanks for checking out my place too! 🍻
美杉の木を使ってたね！♥️
More info coming soon!
@@Dogen Glad to hear it. I’m interested to see how your experience during the construction was similar/different from my own. But it’s a great feeling, eh?
新居の紹介動画でここまで感動したのは初めてかもしれません…
家族みんなの「願い」と「未来」が深く考えられている素晴らしい家です！
これからの新しい動画も楽しみにしています、Dogenさん！
Omg that house is amazing. I love how personalized it is. You can tell there’s a lot of thought put into everything. The architect is a genius. I’m so happy for you
Officialy my dream house 🤩
I'm definitely interested in the cost of land, building, sq m2, etc. looks great!
As someone who spent years studying Japanese, my dreams of visiting Japan were dashed by the pandemic and my excitement has burned down to embers. But your channel has been a light in the dark that keeps my excitement kindled. Seeing your dream house is really special, and I thank you for creating your content from the bottom of my heart.
I can relate. Stay strong and believe in your dream, it will come true one day 🙏
Exactly my case! Pewdiepie moving there appearing on my timeline and now this video, is making me re-consider continuing aiming for this dream. May be a sign for me to not give up before even trying 😊
lol I lived in Japan for 5 years and can only speak basic
道元さんの家の壁、角が丸く仕上げてあって細部にわたるこだわりを感じました。本当に素晴らしいお住まい！
Congratulations, Dogen!

Congratulations on your new house Kevin! You made me want to have a house in Japan as well 😂
I never thought that a house could move me and yet here I am in complete awe. Congratulation Dogen, this is absolutely incredible!
Congratulations on your new home ✨
(I just finished 7 years in Japan). This was so satisfying to watch. The lack of curtains. The lack of aluminum and odd mixed materials. The lack of clunky eye-sores. Just. Wow!! I didn't think a house like this was possible in Japan.
This house is a delight to see, such a well-thought out home, which blends the comforts of modern construction technologies with the quintessential Japanese aesthetic and the workings of the family perfectly! A flagship example of what Architecture can (and should) be, congratulations to you all and all the team involved in bringing this to life!
A floorplan would be nice, to get a better idea of the proportions.
The wood finishings look AMAZING omg. Congrats Dogen!!!
I love how you planned the space to grow with your daughters, it's really sweet and smart. All the best to you and your family!

This is SO NICE. It’s cool, modern, and yet warm, homey, cozy, and kind of traditional at the same time. Big props to the architect team, all the ideas and thoughts they put into this home is amazing. Congrats to Dogen and fam!
Anyone else getting a "This video is unavailable on this device." error? Tried on my phone & pc and it doesnt work; other videos work though
Same here :(
It's finally back to working!
I've never really thought about my own dream house before watching this video. I mean I come from a middle class background as it is but it used to be that every dream house I saw before was just so focused on the money and shine and lavishness that it completely pushed me away. "What's the most expensive thing we put here?", "What's the thing here that would take the cool factor to eleven?" - None of these things felt like home to me. But this video is different. It's so well thought out that I could feel the soul and philosophy of the owner and the designer at every inch of the house, even through a screen. All those windows that I first thought were weirdly sized and placed all click into place once you consider yourself "in the moment" as then they would greatly enhance the experience of being there. Dogen's video has finally got me thinking about a house of my own. Every place he showed like the family closet, I could see why he made it that way and how our different ways of thinking would shape the place. It's such an incredible feeling and so inspirational that I've never felt it before. Thank you, Dogen. You and your family deserve all the happiness in the world.
Congratulations!!! Beautiful home
So happy for you! Congratulation!!!
Great house on every single aspect. One thing though that I found "weird". As a teenager, I would not feel comfortable living at a room like your daughters. 1) It's small. 2) They need privacy. It sorta feels like you are pulling them out of their rooms. They cant sit anywhere by themselves. It wouldn't seem weird to me if one of them relocates upstairs in the future.
Yes, thought the exact same thing. It’s FAR too small. The wall is too thin, and the hallway/desk area lacks privacy. The desk area and even the bedrooms overlook the kitchen. That’s a bad design, unless they incorporate curtains.
@@sasham6960 Good point! I think functionality has been prioritized there over privacy. Kids grow up, and they'll want to be able to study or use computers in private. A desk in one of the rooms once a wall has been put up will make it incredibly claustrophobic I'd imagine.
it seems like the children are very young though in which case it would make sense, but i agree that when they become teenagers they should have a large separate room.
IMO the parents should move upstairs into the guest room, so one daughter gets the room the parents are currently staying in, and the other stays in the room they were originally sharing
@@sasham6960 or they would just build another house by the time they grow up lol
One of them is DEFINITELY going to move upstairs
I work for an isp so I'm wondering where the router and access points are?
In belgium the router is usually located in the technical room next to the gas boiler, distribution board and solar panel adapter and battery etc
Access points are placed where the rssi gets too low to make add an additional wifi signal provider with the same ssid
Will talk about this!
I do Network Administration and that was my first thought as well.
本当に日本に住んでいらっしゃるとは思いませんでした。
本当に素晴らしい家ですね。
Congrats! Beautiful home.
When, I was a preteen in the late 80s I met my first Japanese friend. 30 plus years later and 2 trips to Japan among work, life, kids and family, and we remain friends. I always dreamed of a life in Japan, but the stars aligned differently for me. This house is amazing. Somehow you built the house that lived in my dreams. Congratulations. I’m older but feel young and I want to be just like you when I grow up. :)
The narrow hallways and low ceilings irk me as a tall person but I get it’s a Japanese thingy. It looks beautiful and well thought out in many ways 😊
Great house dude, well done! I really love the burnt wood exterior as well, so pretty!
Dunno if lack of personal closets will be a good thing for your kids growing up but I guess you’ll figure that out when it comes 😅
Yeah I think they'd hate it when they're in their teens.
I'd feel very claustrophobic in a lot of those rooms with the ceiling right overhead, speaking as a fellow Tall Person.
I felt the same thing. The kitchen ceiling was especially low and the rooms were a bit cramped. I’m guessing as the only tall person in the family he made a bit of a compromise in that aspect.
Agree with your comments; small rooms and narrow hallways, but also some v nice design features like the genkan and genkan closet, as well as the bathroom.
This house is so tastefully designed. Congratulations Dogen & the architecture team!
Congratulations to you and the family! Love the design and flow of the home!
it's the best house tour i have ever watched. idk but it has such a calming sense to it and it also looks realistic (what i mean is it has this feeling of being buildable because some of the houses that u see in tours are so expensive-looking that u can't imagine building such a house yourself). get's 10/10 from me!! 👍👍👍
There is such a calm and relaxing feeling throughout your house. And it seems like the architect has designed in everything you need for a minimalist lifestyle. I love that the house is essentially designed around the courtyard providing access to nature and natural light.
One thing that intrigues me, is the family closet. Is that working for you, now you have moved in? Surely there are times when more than one of you needs to be in there.
Amazing! Such a beautiful home
Super nice house! It’s cool to see Tokyo Lens and Ohara in the video too!
