Roof Panelling of Fibreglass-Reinforced Plastic

For a client couple with a limited budget, Yasuyuki Kitamura created a house in harmony with the landscape. The single-storey building in the northern part of Minoh City in Osaka Prefecture draws on many elements of traditional Japanese residential architecture. One exception is the roof panelling of fibreglass-reinforced plastic that lets daylight pour into the structure. The wooden skeleton consists of supports with unit cross-sections of 105 x 105 mm arranged longitudinally as a grid measuring 1.82 m.
