Design studio Spacespace has integrated work and lifestyle into this residential building in Kita-ku, Osaka.

The office on the first floor and residential area on the second floor are leniently sectioned.

On the first floor, the shutters have been removed to make way for a large window, with a window ledge, bench and bicycle stand creating a place to accommodate both things and people.

In addition, the bars, shelves, colonnades and other fixtures have been defined as "gadgets".

This project has been longlisted in the urban house category of Dezeen Awards 2020.
