00:07The house is so small that I can feel what's going on. My wife and my kid are talking and
00:14laughing. You can always feel it and that is a very good thing. This place is so small for
00:23five people but in the future me and my wife gonna live here and this is a good place to
00:29live with for two people. Also I'm enjoying this place. We can always feel nature just
00:40using your sky. I think this is a very good idea for everywhere in the world.
00:47It's something universal you know. If I were living in New York maybe I would make this house.
01:01My name is Zajiro. I live here with my wife and my three kids. I'm an artist and also an
01:09architect.
01:14So this is the door. It says public school city of New York. We bought this in New York.
01:22Me and my wife we lived at Queens Astoria 18 years ago. Entrance door opens inside. It's good for
01:31security things you know. You can push people out. In Japan usually door opens this way. They have
01:38shoes just inside the entrance. The entrance is so small. When I come in you take off shoes here.
01:48As you're this is Japanese rooms. You can stick these magnetic things. Things you don't want to forget.
01:57My kids love to rip this. Like every day. You can open here and there's a storage that you don't
02:06want to show
02:06to people. I put these things for something for outside you put it here. Before you go out you have
02:14to wear your coat. This is my grandfather bought this like 30 years ago. After we moved here we need
02:23a mirror to see
02:26your you know whole body. I first filmed it but it didn't it doesn't look good so I add this.
02:36This is where my shoes. This is where my family's shoes and we want to show it. A lot of
02:42Japanese
02:43architects try to hide shoes or the wearing showing things are more decorative. I designed
02:54classroom just right next to entrance and I have a window here. When I designed it I thought it is
03:03useful
03:04to wash dirty kids coming out from park. But once I designed this I found that I can feel what's
03:13going
03:14on in this living room. It's really nice to take your time in your bathtub. This place is the living
03:24room
03:24with no roof. This is outside you have to put things inside so tv and piano and things that we
03:34have to make inside is in here. I put the piano because the tv piano and sofa if you have
03:43these three
03:43things you can make the place as a living room. So you need a piano you always need a piano
03:49for a living
03:50room. Nobody plays piano now. My wife she's an interior designer and she decides what to put in here.
04:01If somebody try to give me a ball I have to talk to her. Is this okay?
04:09She's so strict about what you should use or not.
04:17You don't have the pockets.
04:19I got a shed for aIIстановamine and mig securing, but it's a great thing called
04:29It looks so cute.
04:35The Christmas tree is very important.
04:41It's been a year and a year.
04:45It's been a lot of different things.
04:50At first, I wanted to put green here.
04:54I wanted to lower the bar here, but if you're here, it's a bit of邪魔, so it's just this bar.
05:24All my work, I could make it in my small study room, but some of the big art, I made
05:32those paintings in this place because we have a very tall height.
05:40That one, that one is Hikaru Oozora, means brightening big sky, and my son bright it, and it fits to
05:51this room.
05:54This is chair made of paper, that was the original product.
05:59It starts breaking, so I add this collage, so that it looks better.
06:07When snow comes, you have to move everything out of here.
06:13We don't want to divide this place as a two place, like, you know, we have this window here so
06:20that we can close it.
06:22This is inside and this is outside, but we wanted this space as a same place, so we have same
06:29color.
06:30We want to use a lot of colors because my art is using a lot of colors.
06:34The painter surprised that when we built this house, is there five colors?
06:43This is our kitchen dining room.
06:47These chairs, we bought this, like, every baby comes out.
06:53We bought one, this, so we have three of these chairs.
06:56We bought one, this is the light.
07:05It's a light that's a light.
07:08It's a strange shape.
07:10It's a form that's a little bit.
07:12I bought three of these three.
07:14I bought one.
07:15This is a door that's only one.
07:18This is the one that I used to buy.
07:30This is the one that I used to buy.
07:33This is the one that I bought.
07:33This is the one that I bought.
07:35This is the one that I bought.
07:39If you buy this, I don't want to see it.
07:41This is the one that I bought.
07:44As you can see, I'm going to use this أنت for my kitchen.
07:47There are a lot of lights on.
07:53This is a little easier to use.
07:55This is the one that I want to use so they don't want it.
08:01It's斜め.
08:04It's light that it's light.
08:07It's light that it is light that it can always use.
08:08I use this to all of the windows.
08:13What is it? What did I forget?
08:16It's not a door.
08:19It's a small part of the wall.
08:21I made a door on the other side of the wall.
08:26It was open to the wall.
08:29The back of the wall is open and I put a wagon in the back of the wall.
08:39He's a really good designer about these things.
09:04You can use it in the morning, so you can use it here.
09:11You can use it here.
09:18I wanted to put a mirror in the bathroom.
09:22I thought it would be a bit difficult to make it.
09:27So I put it in a separate bathroom.
09:33I think every small house does that.
09:36Under the stairs, toilet.
09:43So this is room for changing before the bathroom.
09:50These are the changes for the family.
09:54What we do is just take a bath and take a seat
09:57or talk to people like this.
10:01We do have a curtain here.
10:03So if you really want to care about this,
10:06you just do it like this.
10:09Sometimes my children have to take a bath
10:11when party is going on.
10:14We use this, but that's the only time.
10:17You take a bath in Japan, you know, you take a long time.
10:22And sometimes, you know, mother and children go to a bath together
10:28and spend a long time here.
10:31So this place is like somewhere you could relax for a long time in Japan.
10:44So this is the door of this toilet in the second floor.
10:50So it works like this.
10:51But it also can separate the first floor and the second floor.
11:05This is the small study for me.
11:08And I use this for my work.
11:13That's a bucket.
11:15You can put beer inside.
11:20You have a door in the back side.
11:22So you can sit like this, you know.
11:25This is a bedroom.
11:27I mean, we sleep here.
11:28We don't have a bed.
11:29We use futon here.
11:33Oh, and these are the table.
11:41So you can use your room wider.
11:45But you can also use this table when they want to do something.
11:51Do some homework, study.
11:56These are DIY.
11:58I made it.
11:59This is like playroom.
12:01I mean, they play video games and stuff in here.
12:06This is like IKEA's light.
12:09I like it.
12:09It looks like my house.
12:11This is the green space.
12:13I paint it because I pour water everywhere in here.
12:19So this is a very good place for green.
12:21We made this shelf with my son.
12:25We need a lot of shelf.
12:29So this is the kids place.
12:31So we have three kids.
12:32The children have to go up to sleep because their bed bed.
12:37I mean, their sleeping place is just here.
12:40They have to go up.
12:43Originally, we had a ladder here.
12:46But when we make this shelf, we made it as a ladder.
12:51So you can go up like this.
12:53So this is shelf and ladder.
13:02I had an idea that the place is so small.
13:06We don't want to ladder itself.
13:08Ladder and shelf makes space really compact.
13:13And that's why we made it.
13:18I made this step so that I can go up from here.
13:23Like this.
13:29So this is how I go up.
13:32Just a storage.
13:38I'm left-handed, but I use right-hand guitar.
13:47You can play somebody's guitar anywhere.
13:51I mean, if you go to a bar, if there's a guitar, you can play it.
13:53But if you can only play left-handed guitar,
13:57you can just play it in your house.
13:59But it's a good way.
14:18We used to have, you know,
14:22studio, I mean desk here.
14:24But we moved it.
14:25We're thinking how to use this place now.
14:29Because I have a lot of artwork like this.
14:32So maybe I can put artworks here.
14:35Or maybe we can book the shelf here.
14:40I'm opening this.
14:44How do you call this?
14:46Top.
14:47Vinyl top.
14:49This one is the heaviest one I have used.
14:52Sometimes you have to open.
14:55When people came around,
14:58or when you do the barbecue in fast-fura,
15:02this is like version 5.4.
15:07It took like three years or something to complete.
15:14Now my kids are really getting bigger.
15:19You know, everybody has a kid,
15:21and they try to make their kid's room and everything.
15:25I think that's too big for them.
15:27I think I'm going to live with my wife
15:30for like 30 or 40 years.
15:33The time with your kid is not so long.
15:41When I designed this house,
15:42that was my part of this concept.
15:45This house.
15:46See you soon.
15:49I'm back and see you soon.
15:52So please visit this house.
15:53Thank you as soon as possible.
15:54See you soon.
15:55See you soon.
15:56Bye.
