Helix House by Makoto Takei + Chie Nabeshima

People/Products Located in an exclusive Tokyo neighborhood defined by gracious, tree-lined avenues, the modest wood-shuttered house designed by the Tokyo firm TNA is a Maison Domino structure with a twist. Like Le Corbusier’s conceptual model, it consists of simple slabs and columns. While the piloti elevate the building above the ground, a spiraling ramp wraps its perimeter, seamlessly stitching all of its levels together in one tidy package—without any stairs. Named Helix House by the architects, the project began with a cold call from the . . .

A 21st-century twist on an early Corbusian concept creates a roomy, comfortable spatial arrangement for a young family—indoors and out—in Tokyo.
