Horizon
Horizon is a single storey timber framed house designed for comfortable long term living. The terrace eaves, the carport roof and the gable walls share the same visual depth, which creates a simple and clear silhouette. Careful structural design conceals all interior columns within the walls, so the interior remains open and spacious. Two bedrooms, a living room, a dining room, a kitchen and a guest room connect without corridors. Large south facing windows open onto a terrace and join indoor and outdoor space. Materials and colours were kept to a minimum.
Horizon Residential House by SHUNSUKE OHE was selected as a grand illustration of architectural design by the A' Design Award. Horizon Residential House received the Iron A' Design Award in Architecture, Building and Structure Design in 2026. The A' Architecture, Building and Structure Design Award is an international, meritocratic, just and fair design recognition program that rewards superior design of skyscrapers, museums, residential buildings, commercial complexes, educational institutions, religious structures, infrastructure designs, landscaping projects and more.
