The Pyramid Hut, designed by IGArchitects, is an exclusive dwelling tailored for a married couple. Positioned on a lengthy, gradually descending piece of land, the property exudes a hidden, tranquil ambiance, enclosed on three sides by apartments and a cemetery. This layout gives off an impression of being nestled in a serene, secluded valley, amidst the bustling city surroundings.
Next to the property lies a cemetery, filled with thick vegetation, appearing much like a forest that harmoniously merges with the site. In light of this distinctive setting, the architectural design opted to avoid an Okinawan-style building with extensive openings, as such a design would have appeared incongruous. Instead, the aim was to construct a structure that is both bright and secluded, while also maintaining a respectful distance from its surroundings and enhancing the natural environment.
Drawing inspiration from ancient Okinawan tombs, the Pyramid Hut is a stately structure that boasts a luminous yet solemn interior. Its design aims to make it resilient against environmental factors, ensuring its longevity and continued appreciation long after its original purpose has passed. This timeless architecture will not only be preserved but also enjoyed by future generations, regardless of shifts in ownership or purpose.
The dwelling boasts a square pyramid layout, standing proudly upon a robust base made of Ryukyu limestone. From afar, it seems as if it’s perched on stilts, engineered to stay secure and secluded regardless of soil erosion in the surrounding area. The enclosed pyramid shape not only bolsters structural integrity but also offers a feeling of privacy. Select openings in the base and roof facilitate a controlled interaction with the outdoors, ensuring a serene and calm living ambiance inside the house.
The layout of the site is divided into three separate zones, each designed for a particular role within the living area to enhance functionality and comfort. Level one encompasses the bathroom and entryway, effectively grouping plumbing facilities. Level two accommodates both the living/dining room and a workspace, while level three, located at the rear of the site, is dedicated to the bedroom and other private areas.
As I step inside, I’m greeted by a blend of warm wooden accents beneath an expansive skylight, all nestled within a robust concrete frame that whispers tales of long-lost ruins. This design, mirroring the enduring spirit of heritage structures, promises durability and tenacity. It’s as if the house itself is carved from the same stone as those ancient wonders, exuding an air of permanence and a touch of Brutalist allure.
