MON Factory/House by EASTERN Design Office - Dezeen

Japanese architects have completed a house punctured by circular holes in Gojo, Japan.

Called MON Factory/House, the building has 26 holes in its concrete exterior, forming a cross-shape on the facade and extending down the house s sides.

Designed for a craftsman making crests for clothing, the residence comprises a workshop, living room and bedroom with two courtyards in between.

The single-storey house is elevated three metres from the ground, with space for a car to be parked underneath.

Here s some more information from EASTERN Design Office:

The holes are lined up on a cross shape. The hole is made on the architecture like the perforated line. This architecture is House with Crest .

A light that penetrates into the architecture always moves and never stays. It is a symbolic spectacle. A light that goes through the hole is projected in a circle shape, moves unlimitedly, and never stays. Occasionally, it disappears, and it appears.

The site is located in Gojo, Kyoto. It is in a block of the typical division of a traditional residential area in Kyoto. The site faces the busy street of 4m in width on the west side. The backside of the high-rise buildings of 45m line up on the east side of the site. The neighbor houses are closely built in the south and the north of the site.
