House in Nabeshima净化心灵━
Nabeshima住宅坐落于稻作地带的平原之上，此地的农业灌溉渠如网状般纵横交错。场地的南北两侧都朝向着溪流，每一户进出家门都需要穿过一座小桥。虽然这里早已从农田变成了常规的住宅区，但清澈的水中仍能看到淡水鱼嬉游的身影。
Nabeshima house sits on a plain in a rice-growing region criss-crossed by a network of agricultural irrigation canals. The north and south sides of the site face the stream, and each family crosses a small bridge to get in and out of their home. Although the area has long since changed from farmland to a regular residential area, freshwater fish can still be seen playing in the clear water.
入口处的圆木架结构起到很好的分隔作用，花园则被安排在住宅的后侧，如此创造了一个不被干扰的安静区域。凸起的地形上种植着不同的树木，在散落的巨石和覆盖着雪松苔藓上星罗棋布的投下树叶的阴影，宛如一幅充满诗意的田园画。
The log frame structure at the entrance serves as a partition, while the garden is placed at the back of the house, thus creating a quiet area that is not disturbed. The raised terrain is planted with different trees, which cast shadows of leaves on scattered boulders and covered with cedar moss, creating a poetic pastoral picture.
建筑师于住宅南侧设计了一处由纯木框架建构的宁静花园，大小立柱承担着支撑的作用，也在有限的视线里创造了所谓“距离”的空间感。居住者可静坐于此，便于欣赏四季的光景变化和打坐冥想，以净化自我的内在心灵。
On the south side of the house, the architects designed a peaceful garden made of a solid wood frame, supported by large and small columns, which also create a sense of "distance" from the limited views. Residents can sit here to enjoy the changes of the seasons and meditate to purify their inner mind.
客厅与另一侧的院子通过长廊而相互连接，开阔的游廊与南侧的花园形成尺度的对比，结合庭院现有的地形，使建筑与之融为一体，住宅的所有空间，无不巧妙地共享着庭院景观。
The living room and the courtyard on the other side are connected by a long corridor, and the open veranda forms a scale contrast with the garden on the south side. Combined with the existing topography of the courtyard, the building is integrated with it. All the Spaces of the house are subtly shared with the courtyard landscape.
