基地位于东京市中心拥挤的街巷中，为了深度开发这里，设计聚焦在既保持住房密度又保证采光和通风，从而提高租金。为此，建筑师在一层设置水平空隙，以满足当地的疏散条例，并将每个体块的四角凹进，形成六个竖直空隙，使得每间公寓都获得采光，创造舒畅的室内环境。
To develop a parcel relatively deep with tight frontage in central Tokyo, the main theme for drawing the plan focused on supply of daylight and airflow throughout, while retaining density and thus enhancing rents. In this regard, a void to meet the local ordinance requirement of an evacuation route and additional voids were established.The four corners of each volume are notched to establish six vertical voids that bring light down into each unit for a heartening indoor environment.

单间公寓将浴室区域置于中心，其走廊沿着外墙设置。内部走廊均与竖直空隙相连，形成贯穿前后街道的风道。
The studio flats in this complex arrange their bath areas towards the core of their volume and corridor along an exterior wall. The respective corridors internally connect the six voids as thoroughfares of natural ventilation from the street-front to the back.
