The Imported House, Just Like a Castle

Now this house is constructing in Toyota city and will be complete few weeks later.

This time we choose to laid a bricks named “Heritage Gray” for brick veneer wall.

Those bricks has a rugged surface almost like a stone.
Then about the color, those were formerly red but coated by white sand therefore this bricks are wearing pinkish gray then it is looks like white in a whole picture.

Actually, those bricks are named gray but that’s really like a white castle in the dream. Isn't this fabulous? We are proud of our materials, perhaps, no one cannot provide such a nice bricks?

Sometime later you can see completely how beautiful this house.

We are planing for an Open House in the middle of November,2010,
but if you would like see more details just contact us any time.
I shall be pleased to show you our proud of lovely works!

The Mirror Wall Cabinet Has Been Rare


This is one of the houses showcasing our work in Kariya city.

And it was partly designed by one of our female staff.
When she joined our company, she was a new graduate, so she needed to be trained from the very beginning.
I'm sure that she had to study really hard and had some tough times back then.

The cabinet and counter in the washroom was designed by her. Actually, I had to ask her to redesign it many times until we can could share the design with the client.
And then, we had some meetings with the client for the final design.

It was made by natural color oak and we put a pure white counter on it.

The imported cabinet and counter are custom-built and there weren't any other choices. It shows the brightness and cleanliness, and I think it also express the atmosphere of the customer.
And then, she used a dolphin shaped faucet. It's easy to imagine that children love to use it. About the mirror, fortunately there was a medicine cabinet in our stock, which perfectly fits to the room.

The medicine cabinet is quite useful for putting goods away around the washbasin like toothbrushes, or cosmetics, and so on, but recently it has been rare in North America. And what I hope is this kind of old design loved by every generations.

I really would recommend especially for Japanese people who prefer to use storage, in addition there is a function of the mirror! It will make washbasin keep clean.

Real American Residence in Nagoya, Japan



This house was built for American family staying in Nagoya, japan. They have many friends and hold a party together. So, a huge space was required here.

I installed the whole bricks at the first floor wall. And for the interior wall, I installed drywall like North America, though they are rare in Japan.

Of course, many building materials were imported from Canada. So, this house is a real western style house.

Please check the movie and enjoy it.

Grandma's home was imaged. - Mr. M's house

Added a new work, Mr. M's house in my web page of Work Introduction. The house plan is based on feng shui conception and Japanese retro design in Showa period. Foe this House, while we asked a master the opinion of feng shui, we were planning the floor and exterior design.

Considering the features and usability, it is often not ideal. But we finally achieved this to use every device.

At exterior wall we installed Stucco Flex that combines durability and flexibility as a cladding material. And we installed asphalt shingle roofing with 30 years warranty on the roof.

The interior conception is the house where the owner's wife had visited a grandmother in her childhood. It can also be sticking to this even a new building. Please check the details in the page, Grandma's home was imaged. - Mr. M's house. If you want to see the video, please check the video of Mr. M's house.

Living with pets


Do you design with pets in mind at house building or renovation? When you build a new house or renovate a room in Japan, you may want to consult a builder who knows dog or cat and building materials to live with pets, but actually such a builder is rare near you.

So, I would like to let you know information in my new web page, "Living with pets". Please check it, if you are interested in it. Thanks.

Old Style Design K1770PB


Recently I have never seen such a brass colored lighting in North America. However, Japanese may like a chandelier with candle bulbs.

It is not so decolative but they will imagine the old American life in this design.

The diameter is 17" and it is suitable in a narrow stairway.

The customer, N moved here yesterday, but it looks like an old house by the light and shadow on the drywall.

It will become beautiful more after 10 years or more.

The other Japanese builders cannot achieve such a design because they use a vinyl wall paper and a commonplace lighting fixture.

Calculated Beauty


The highlights in home design are kitchen, vanity, bath tub and lighting, etc. This time we introduce the staircase and handrail.

From a recent trend, simple and modern style, there are not so many builders who install the decorative design in houses.

It may be easier, if it is packaged together with all. But I must combine the various parts depending on the size and shape of the stairs. And a carpenter needs experience and time for the installation.

How do you think about this? I think it is art. Ballusters stand rhythmically and handrail moves three-dimensionally.

This is made of solid red oak and I can choose delicate design for ballusters. Because it is so hard and difficult to break.
When using soft pine for staircase, I will choose thick ones to increase the strength of the tread and balluster.

I have to change the materials in accordance with the place and customer's desire. It would be required to a builder.

After all, hard work is fun!

The other highlights are shown on the page of " Sales and introduction of materials ". Thanks.
