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.
04:17she's very important for her. She has made a glass rack.
04:24I've集ed everything, and I've集ed everything.
04:27I've集ed everything, so I put it here.
04:31It's so cute.
04:35I've been working on Christmas tree.
04:41I've been collecting a lot of different things.
04:51It's a good place to grow green, so I put greens and
05:14lightings in my artworks, and you can hang a lot of things here.
05:20These are the lighting and art.
05:23A lot of my work, I could make it in my small study room, but some of the big art,
05:31I made
05:32those paintings in this place because we have very tall height.
05:40That one, that one is Hikaru Ozora, means brightening big sky, and my son write it, and it fits
05:51to this room.
05:55This is chair made of paper, that was the original product.
05:58It 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 two places.
06:18We have this window here so that we can close it.
06:22This is inside and this is outside, but we want this space as the same place, so we have
06:29the same color.
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, so we bought it.
07:05It's a light light.
07:06This is a light light.
07:06It's a switch that has a switch.
07:09It's a strange form.
07:11I bought it.
07:16I bought it.
07:17The door is one of the only ones.
07:19This is when you always buy visão endeavors, Because this camera I bought.
07:28The other door is used and I bought it.
07:33I bought it.
07:35It's new then.
07:38The door is Word-in-s tent.
07:39It's not coming.
07:39Even if it's new then, your eye to open the eyes open.
07:42Here.
07:44I don't use this bulbs that you can't use.
07:47You can't use lights, light bulbs like this.
07:53I want to use this bulbs.
07:55If I move this way, I'm going to make a problem.
08:01It's just a way of use it to use it.
08:04This light is薄, but it's a way of using it.
08:07It's easy to use, so I can use everything here.
08:13What? What? What? What? What?
08:19It's small, so it's open to the other side of the stairs.
08:29The bottom is open, so I can put a wagon and put a little bit of storage.
08:39He's a really good designer about these things.
09:05You can use it here, so you can use it here.
09:18I wanted to put a mirror on the toilet.
09:23I thought it would be difficult to make a table.
09:27So I put a separate toilet toilet.
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.
10:01And we do have cotton 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.
10:15But that's the only time.
10:17You take a bath in Japan.
10:20You take a long time.
10:22And sometimes, you know,
10:24mother and children go to 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.
11:44But you can also use this table.
11:47When they want to do something.
11:51Do some homework, study.
11:56These are DIY.
11:58I made it.
11:59This is like a playroom.
12:01I mean, they play video games and stuff in here.
12:06This is IKEA's light.
12:09I like it.
12:09It looks like my house.
12:11This is the green space.
12:13I paint it.
12:15Because 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.
12:33The children have to go up to sleep.
12:35Because 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.
13:32It's just 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, you can just play it in your house.
13:59But it's a good way.
14:18We used to have, you know, studio, I mean desk here, but we moved it.
14:26We'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?
14:45Top.
14:47Vinyl top.
14:49This one is the heaviest one I have used.
14:52Sometimes you have to open.
14:55When people came around or 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.
15:19Everybody has a kid and 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 for like 30 or 40 years.
15:33The time with your kid is not so long.
15:41When I designed this house, that was my part of this concept, this house.
