Projets · Matador H2A lin-a LAN Architecture JDS Architects Agence Search Architecture House in Yamasaki with rooftop sheds by Tato Architects The top floor rooms of this house in Japan by Tato Architects are contained inside sheds that sit on the roof (+ slideshow). Located in a residential area in Hyogo Prefecture, the house was designed for a family with two children. "The residents requested that, as the area has short hours of sunlight in winter, they'd like to bring in as much light as possible," architect Yo Shimada of Tato Architects told Dezeen. To achieve this, the architect designed two of the rooftop sheds like greenhouses with translucent polycarbonate walls that let light through into the study room and bathroom contained inside, as well as down to the ground floor spaces below. A layer of translucent insulation prevents the bathroom walls becoming too transparent. "There is no problem because they are not clear enough to expose more than the silhouettes," explained Shimada. The third shed has opaque walls to create more privacy for a guest bedroom. Here's some more information from Yo Shimada: Overhead courtyard
