If you are thinking about building a home in Japan and you like the traditional wooden aspects of a Japanese home, but also want the comfort and durability of a modern home, then you should talk with Mr. Yokozeki Masato, the CEO and principal architect at NEO GEO. Mr. Masato has long been involved with the renovation and preservation of traditional buildings, and he is able to use the knowledge and techniques garnered from this work in an innovative way when building new homes.
Mr. Masato’s office is located in the architecturally historic area of Tondabayashi City in Osaka. This area has been designated as an important traditional architecture preservation district due to the many outstanding examples of traditional Japanese homes. Out of 600 town houses in the district, 250 are traditional Japanese houses. Some of these homes have been designated as either national or prefectural significant properties.
Mr. Masato pays careful attention to all aspects of the homes design. As an example when designing the floorplan of the new home Mr. Masato is particular that the new home’s layout is suitable for today’s modern lifestyle. Optimum materials and earthquake-proof construction technologies are used to make homes safe.
