A house design became a project for the small tobacco shop where a woman in her sixties lived alone. The central places for living such as kitchen, bath, and restroom were positioned on the first floor together with the shop. The bedroom was positioned on the second floor and the terrace was positioned on the third floor

The modern house was stood about 500 meters from a major train station in suburban Osaka. It became a lively area with large supermarkets and high-rise apartments
With construction to elevate the train line and redevelopment of the area around the station, land readjustment guided a former combination store front and dwelling being dismantled and the land being reassigned. This site, a 24.38 sqm small triangular plot was left.

Not only small but an unusual shape, by placing a spiral staircase, it maintained as much floor space as possible. In addition, the shop design consisted of the 2nd floor slab as thin as we could. The slits were made to allow light to pour in from the upper floor. Painting the support wall for the staircase green, a feeling of depth was given. A space where the room and staircase were one, was created. This large tobacco shop was finished.

The small house with a tobacco shop on the ground floor in Osaka, Japan, was completed Japanese firm Avehideshi Architects and Associates. A small shop was developed on a 24 square-metre triangular site between a train line and high-rise block of flats. There were kitchen, bathroom, living space and shop on the ground floor. On the second, there was the bedroom, while a walled roof-terrace on the third. It used a spiral staircase and slimmed-down first storey floor slab to maximize floor space and ceiling height respectively. The internal wall enclosing the spiral staircase colored green to give a feeling of depth. A slit split between the first-storey floor slab and bathroom wall. It gave the light to flow into the shop floor from above.
