Could imagine toddler learning to walk getting excited doing laps with walker and running around and stull safe.privacu screen .itssafer cause dont have to have guest in bedroom we have to take shoes off in house too

Thank you very much. What you did really valuable to me. No other channels can explain this idea as clear as you did. Thank a whole lot.❤

What I wonder about is the slab on grade. I saw a video where a house was built traditional, except it was slab on grade. in that video, and in your sketch, it seems water would pool on the slab, becoming like a wading pool beneath the house. In that video, it rained and water pooled all around the slab.

Great video. Thanks.

This is awesome. I’d trust Japanese earthquake engineers over any other engineers in the world. If they can build an earthquake-proof structure than I’d definitely feel comfortable buying and living in that home Are there more recent developments and videos? This is already 3 years old

I would love to see how these ground gutters are made. I can't find a single video about it.

It would be great if you return there when is raining to see it in action.

That was a really nice explanation of how engawa works, I live in the caribbean and in my house we also have an “inside outside” place that is our patio kitchen, since here is always hot or hotter, cooking outside is better with the breeze. We dont have glass doors, instead we use curtains made with enea, a plant, that is a natural fiber, and absorbs the heat from the sun, so the kitchen feels so much fresh than the outside. Each part of the world has so much different solutions for their environment housing problems, is wonderful to learn other places architecture.

Saludos muy buen video felicitaciones. Talves hay algún manual donde se pueda encontrar las especificaciones de esta metodología tanto en diseño como construcción?? Si lo podrían facilitar fuera excelente. Saludos cordiales.

Thank you!!!

Complimenti per questo bellissimo video 👍👏

Grazie per questo bellissimo video e complimenti 👍👏

How do they match the wood stake's bottom with the stone top? Is it extremely hard? I heard that ancient Mayan stone walls tight fitting is a lost art that no one knows how to build it anymore? How about this Japanese skill of aligning the wood and the stone?

Is there any application of this research that can be applied to a common two or three-story houses made of bricks and concrete?

:) what is the name of the company? it is a nice technique.

The foundation would be unlikely to work in the location where I live, with 10-20 meters of river clay before you get to sand - the stones would just sink.

I know this is not normal in Japan but I would really love to see that test but instead of earthquakea, it's wind very high wind like an EF5 tornado speed winds or wind speed. Even though those types of tests basically essentially useless in Japan since really only Japan gets I think typhoons, tsunamis and earthquakes only. Even though there is sometimes Japan does get tornadoes but very small and weak. Edit. Had to make some corrections from 13 days ago and lost my liked comment, makes me sad.

4:36 the rocks beneath the large stones kind of act like ballast stones as we see in railways me thinks

Hello, Roger.　How are you doing in these days？Are you enjoying your Rungy？　How about Minori？ Is she enjoying her Rugby? Still continueing cold days but dou you like to attck old castle? If you want please contact me. I am planning to attack Kousigatake ar nishi word. And after that let's visit Kuroda. Enjoy your Rugby always!

I came here from Mr Chickadee's. Fascinating, yet my builder/carpenter friends still don't believe it can work.

Thank you. I have been debating between slab and piles for my new build in Nee Zealand. This helps a lot.

that's crazy that the house is just sitting there by gravity alone, and that you could literally lift the thing with a bunch of cranes and set it down somewhere else in one piece (theoretically)

thank you for these videos

Please make more videos highlighting elements of japanese architecture. As a former exchange student to Japan who works as a photographer in many high end homes, I'd love to bring some of the Japanese architectural influence to america

I've been looking for guides on how to build a washitsu in my house, or as an addition. I can't find anything! Your content is as close as I've come, and I'm shocked that it has so few views. You should promote it!

Love this video. Thanks so much for the information.

Thank you for your informative post on the engawa. I use the idea of engawa as ‘intermediate’ space to link in-door and out-door learning space in design of learning spaces

I love the clothing layering analogy you used to describe the concept of an engawa. I lived in Japan for 3 years and spent a lot of time in older villages admiring the old architecture with engawas. It would be so cool to see some tiny house designs that took advantage of such a multi functional space! TFS

You should use Wood More strenght AND resistent.

wish you had a tour on that house. love the wood works on it. nice video, thank you for sharing!

Very informative! I knew the resourcefulness of traditional Japanese architecture was impressive but never realized the ingenuity around its intent to withstand earthquakes from a physics point of view! Traditional Japanese architecture just got a whole lot cooler! Thank you 🙏🏼

good to know

I love these designs

Those shot of Japanese cultural products or materials are not so often to me, the company's introduction video have good shots of them. Hope those are liked and acknowledged by the people widely in both Japan and overseas.

Excellent!!! Keep making videos! You should go and take a look at promosm!!! I used it to promote my Instagram and it helped my posts start to trend. It could really help you promote your videos too!!!
