Front House is a minimal home located in Yokohama, Japan, designed by uenoa. The home is for a young couple and their three children. The site is located at the end of a newly developed residential area. This home faces new developements and old developments due to the site sitting at the edge of a transitioning area. The architects planned two buildings with relevance to both the new town and old town. A staircase between the two buildings connect the three spaces, and creates a building that encompasses both time periods.
