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 has been highlighted as an exceptional representation of architectural design by the A' Design Award & Competition. 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, jury-voted, fair and ethical design award which rewards outstanding design of skyscrapers, museums, residential buildings, commercial complexes, educational institutions, religious structures, infrastructure designs, landscaping projects and more.
