Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] The present invention relates to residential construction, particularly to residential construction in apartment buildings. [Background technology]
[0002] Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open Publication No. 2003-161046 (Patent Document 1) discloses a house with a workroom in which a workroom is provided accessible from the dining room and the workroom is partitioned by a waist wall. Inside this workroom, a workbench is placed along the upper end of the waist wall.
[0003] Utility Model Registration No. 3231592 (Patent Document 2) discloses a configuration in which a partition board is provided inside a room in a house, dividing the space inside the room into a main space and a sub-space that serves as a telework space. It also discloses that the height of the partition board is set so that it can block the line of sight when seated in the sub-space, but allows a view of the main space when standing.

[0004] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2003-161046 [Patent Document 2] Utility Model Registration No. 3231592 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]
[0005] Due to the current global pandemic, many companies have begun implementing teleworking, bringing about major changes in society and daily life. It is expected that teleworking will continue to expand in the future, not only during the pandemic but also for business continuity purposes in the event of natural disasters such as typhoons, heavy rains, and earthquakes. Therefore, it is advisable to create an environment in which teleworking can be performed from home.
[0006] In a detached house like the one described in Patent Document 1, it is possible to set up a work room in a desired location to suit the resident's own lifestyle. However, in an apartment building, it is difficult to set up a dedicated study (work room) within the limited living area, and in the case of a rental apartment building, if the area of a living room or private room is reduced to create a work room, the target tenants will be limited to those who telework, which could result in vacant properties, which is undesirable.
[0007] Furthermore, as in Patent Document 2, if a partition panel is installed in a living room or other room to turn part of the room into a telework space, it is possible to easily create a telework space, but the area of the room's original "living space" is reduced, making it unsuitable for continuous use.
[0008] The present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned problems, and its purpose is to provide a residential structure that has a "workspace" that can be continuously used as a telework space while ensuring the living space area required for the house. [Means for solving the problem]
[0009] A residential structure according to one aspect of the present invention comprises a first living room serving as a living and / or dining room, and a second living room which is a private room adjacent to the first living room via a partition wall and includes a living space facing a window leading to the outdoors, and a workspace having at least a desk and a smaller area than the living space; a first portion of the partition wall adjacent to the living space is provided with an entrance / exit for accessing the second living room from the first living room, and a second portion of the partition wall adjacent to the workspace is provided with an opening communicating with the first living room.
[0010] Preferably, the workspace is surrounded on three sides by side walls including a partition wall, at least one outlet is provided on the side wall of the workspace, and a dimmable light fixture is provided on the ceiling of the workspace.
[0011] Preferably, the living space and the workspace are provided along the partition wall without any partition, and the width of the workspace entrance is smaller than the width of the entire living space.
[0012] Preferably, the desk is arranged facing the second portion of the partition wall, and the opening is provided at a higher position than the desk.
[0013] The lower end height of the opening should be between 1200mm and 1600mm.
[0014] More preferably, the opening is provided with a light-transmitting interior window.
[0015] Preferably, the workspace includes a shelf adjacent to the desk.
[0016] Preferably, the second room further includes a storage space adjacent to both the living space and the workspace, and the entrance to the storage space is located at the boundary with the living space or the boundary with the workspace. [Effects of the Invention]
[0017] According to the present invention, it is possible to provide a residential structure that has a "workspace" that can be continuously used as a telework space while ensuring the necessary living space area for the house. Therefore, the residential structure of the present invention is suitable for rental apartment complexes. [Brief explanation of the drawings]

[Figure 4] 10(A) to 10(C) are diagrams showing modified examples of the embodiment of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0019] DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. In the drawings, the same or corresponding parts are designated by the same reference numerals and description thereof will not be repeated.
[0020] <About the overview> An overview of the structure of a house according to this embodiment will be described with reference to Fig. 1. Fig. 1 is a plan view showing an example of the floor plan of a house 1 according to this embodiment. The house 1 according to this embodiment corresponds to one dwelling unit in an apartment building (such as an apartment building).
[0021] The house 1 shown in FIG. 1 is a so-called 2LDK type house, and includes a living-dining room (LDK) 10 equipped with kitchen facilities 11, and two private rooms 20 and 30. The kitchen facilities 11 in the living-dining room (hereinafter abbreviated as "living") 10 include a stove and a sink, and are arranged so as to face each other, for example, toward a balcony 90. The private rooms 20 and 30 are, for example, Western-style rooms that function as bedrooms. The area of the living room 10 is larger than that of the private rooms 20 and 30.
[0022] The living room 10 and the private rooms 20 and 30 are "living rooms" provided in the house 1. In addition to these living rooms, the house 1 also has "sanitary rooms" including a bathroom 41, a washroom 42, and a toilet 43, and "non-living rooms" including an entrance area (corridor) 44, a hallway 45, etc.
[0023] The living room 10 and the private room 20 are disposed adjacent to each other with a partition wall 51 in between. Both the living room 10 and the private room 20 are disposed facing the exterior wall on the balcony 90 side, and are provided with windows 12, 23 that lead to the outdoors. In the following description, the direction along the partition wall 51 is referred to as the "left-right direction," and the direction perpendicular (intersecting) to the partition wall 51 (the direction in which the living room 10 and the private room 20 are adjacent to each other) is referred to as the "orthogonal direction." Arrow A1 in FIG. 1 indicates the left-right direction, and arrow A2 indicates the orthogonal direction.
[0024] The other private room 30 is located away from the living room 10, for example, facing the exterior wall opposite the balcony 90. The private room 30 also has a window 32 leading to the outdoors. The private room 30 is a typical private room, and is composed of a single rectangular living space 31. The private room 30 may include a storage space 33 that is accessible (or removable) from the living space 31.
[0025] In contrast, the private room 20 adjacent to the living room 10 includes a rectangular living space 21 and a workspace 22 that is equipped with at least a desk 61 and has a smaller area than the living space 21. The private room 20 may also include a storage space 24 that is accessible (or removable) from the living space 21.
[0026] In this embodiment, the house 1 is provided with two private rooms 20, 30, but the other private room 30 is not essential. In other words, the house 1 may be a 1LDK type house. Alternatively, the house 1 may be a 3LDK type house. The exclusive use area of the house 1 is, for example, 60 to 90 m 2 The extent is expected.
[0027] In addition, in this embodiment, the living room (first living room) adjacent to the private room 20 (second living room) including the workspace 22 is the living-dining room 10 used for both living and dining purposes, but it may also be a room used for only one of the purposes. For example, in a house where the living room and dining room (having kitchen facilities 11) are separate, the "first living room" can be either the living room or the dining room. In other words, the "first living room" can be any room used as a living room and / or dining room. In either case, it is desirable that the "first living room" faces a window leading to the outdoors.
[0028] <Configuration example of 20 private rooms> A specific example of the configuration of the private room 20 will be described with reference to FIG.
[0029] Private room 20 is surrounded on all four sides by a partition wall 51 between it and living room 10, an exterior wall 52 with window 23, a wall 53 facing partition wall 51, and a wall 54 facing exterior wall 52. In this embodiment, private room 20 has a rectangular overall shape. "Rectangular shape" means a roughly regular square, and may have some irregularities due to pillars or the like. Wall 53 is, for example, a partition wall, and wall 54 is, for example, a partition wall between entrance 44 and toilet 43. Walls 53, 54 may be any of an exterior wall, a partition wall, and a partition wall. If wall 53 is an exterior wall, wall 53 may also have a window.
[0030] Within the private room 20, partition walls 55, 56 are provided that are arranged in an L shape and perpendicular to (intersect with) the walls 53, 54, respectively, and these partition walls 55, 56 divide the private room 20 into three rectangular areas. In other words, the private room 20 is divided into a living space 21, a workspace 22, and a storage space 24. The partition walls 55, 56, like the partition wall 51, are walls that extend from the floor to the ceiling, and are provided integrally with the walls 53, 54.
[0031] (21 living spaces) Living space 21 is disposed facing window 23 in exterior wall 52, and is a space whose total width (W1) extends from partition wall 51 to wall 53. In other words, living space 21 is surrounded on three sides by partition wall 51, exterior wall 52, and wall 53, and is separated from another space (storage space 24) by partition wall 56. In this embodiment, partition wall 56 is disposed slightly closer to wall 54 than the midpoint between exterior wall 52 and wall 54 in the left-right direction.
[0032] Living space 21 is larger than other spaces 22 and 24, and is preferably 4.5 tatami mats or larger. If the basic architectural dimensions of house 1 are one module (approximately 900 to 1000 mm), living space 21 is, for example, 3.0 modules (left-right direction) x 3.5 modules (orthogonal direction) in size.
[0033] The entrance 20a for entering and exiting the private room 20 from the living room 10 is provided in a portion (hereinafter referred to as the "first portion") 51a of the partition wall 51 adjacent to the living space 21. There are no partitions or the like within the living space 21, and the living space 21 is a space that can fulfill the original function of a private room.
[0034] (24 storage spaces) The storage space 24 is surrounded on all four sides by the walls 53, 54 of the private room 20 itself and the partition walls 55, 56. In other words, the storage space 24 is a closed space located at a corner where the walls 53, 54 of the private room 20 intersect at right angles. The storage space 24 is adjacent to the living space 21 in the left-right direction via the partition wall 56, and adjacent to the workspace 22 in the orthogonal direction via the partition wall 55. In this embodiment, the partition wall 55 is positioned slightly closer to the partition wall 51 than the midpoint between the partition wall 51 and the wall 53 in the orthogonal direction. The partition wall 56 is positioned, for example, so as to substantially coincide with the left-right end positions of the entrance / exit 20a of the private room 20.
[0035] The size of the storage space 24 is, for example, 2.0 modules (left-right direction) x 2.0 modules (orthogonal direction). The storage space 24 is typically a walk-in closet with a single entrance 24a. The entrance 24a of the storage space 24 is provided in the partition wall 56 on the living space 21 side. Therefore, like the other private room 30, the resident can enter and exit the storage space 24 from the living space 21.
[0036] (Workspace 22) The workspace 22 is surrounded on three sides by a partition wall 51, a wall 54, and a partition wall 55. In other words, the workspace 22 is a semi-closed space located at the corner where the partition wall 51 and the wall 54 intersect at right angles. The workspace 22 is adjacent to the storage space 24 in the perpendicular direction via the partition wall 55, but is adjacent to the living space 21 without a partition (in the left-right direction). In other words, the living space 21 and the workspace 22 are only visually separated by the position of the partition wall 56, and are provided without a partition along the partition wall 51. Therefore, the partition wall 51 has a first portion 51a adjacent to the living space 21 in the left-right direction and a portion 51b (hereinafter referred to as the "second portion") adjacent to the workspace 22.
[0037] In this embodiment, the workspace 22 is smaller than the living space 21 and also smaller than the storage space 24. The size of the workspace 22 is, for example, 2.0 modules (left-right direction) x 1.5 modules (orthogonal direction). In this case, the front width W2 of the workspace 22 (see FIG. 3(A)) is 1.5 modules, which is less than half the overall width W1 of the living space 21. As such, the size (area) of the workspace 22 is preferably about 1.5 tatami mats, but may be 1 to 3 tatami mats. Note that in cases where the planar shape of the entire private room 20 is not rectangular but has an irregular shape, the size relationship between the areas of the workspace 22 and the storage space 24 may be reversed, or they may be the same size.
[0038] In this way, in the house 1 of this embodiment, a living space 21 that fulfills the original function of a private room is secured within one private room 20 (without reducing the area), and a workspace 22 that is partitioned off on three sides by walls is provided in the corner of the room. The workspace 22 is also equipped in advance with facilities that enable teleworking, such as a desk 61. Therefore, the resident can continuously use the workspace 22 as a telework space.
[0039] Of the three side walls surrounding workspace 22, wall 54 and partition wall 55 have no openings, but partition wall 51 (second portion 51b) has an opening 70 that connects to living room 10. This makes it possible to realize a telework environment that combines a "confined feeling" that allows for concentrated work in workspace 22 with a "sense of security" that allows for the presence of living room 10.
[0040] <Internal structure of workspace 22> 2 and 3(A), an example of the internal configuration of workspace 22 will be described. Fig. 2 is an elevation view seen from direction II in Fig. 1, and Fig. 3(A) is a cross-sectional view taken along line IIIA-IIIA in Fig. 1.
[0041] 2, in this embodiment, a desk 61 and a storage shelf 62 are arranged side by side in the left-right direction facing the second portion 51b of the partition wall 51. Specifically, when viewed from the living space 21 side, the desk 61 is arranged on the front side, and the storage shelf 62 is arranged on the back side (toward the wall 54).
[0042] Within the workspace 22, two standing wall portions 81, 82 are provided, perpendicular to the partition wall 51 and spaced apart from each other in the left-right direction, and the desk 61 is disposed between the standing wall portions 81, 82. The storage shelf 62 is composed of a plurality of shelves 62a spanning between the rear standing wall portion 82 and the wall 54 of the private room 20. The front standing wall portion 81 is preferably a waist-high wall extending from the floor to waist height (H2). The rear standing wall portion 82 (on the right side in FIG. 2) is preferably a wall extending from the floor to ceiling height. The standing wall portions 81, 82 are provided integrally with the partition wall 51 and are walls provided so as to protrude from the partition wall 51 (in a T-shape or L-shape in plan view).
[0043] The standing wall portion 81 on the near side (left side in FIG. 2) is disposed, for example, on the same line (indicated by a dashed line) as the partition wall 56 of the storage space 24, and is provided in a position close to the entrance / exit 20a of the partition wall 51. In this case, the position of the standing wall portion 81 coincides with the position of the front of the workspace 22. The standing wall portions 81, 82 are disposed at a distance equivalent to, for example, 1.5 modules, and the standing wall portion 82 on the far side (right side in FIG. 2) is disposed at a distance equivalent to, for example, 0.5 modules from the wall 54 of the private room 20.
[0044] The protrusion dimension L2 of the standing wall portions 81, 82 from the partition wall 51 is, for example, equivalent to 0.5 modules, and the desk 61 and shelf board 62a are arranged within the protrusion range of the standing wall portions 81, 82. In other words, in the perpendicular direction, the area from the partition wall 51 to the front end positions of the standing wall portions 81, 82 is the "furniture area 22a." The remaining area is the "walkable area 22b."
[0045] Furniture area 22a includes desk placement area 22d, which is partitioned by upright wall portions 81, 82, and shelf placement area 22s, which is partitioned by rear upright wall portion 82 and wall 54. The ratio between desk placement area 22d and shelf placement area 22s is not limited to the above example (3:1), but it is desirable that desk placement area 22d be wider than shelf placement area 22s. The depth dimension of furniture area 22a in the orthogonal direction corresponds to protrusion dimension L2 of upright wall portions 81, 82, and is, for example, 0.5 modules.
[0046] Walkable area 22b is an area without built-in desks or shelves. In this embodiment, walkable area 22b faces partition wall 56 and extends from the front of workspace 22 to back wall 54. The specific size of walkable area 22b is, for example, equivalent to 3.0 modules (left-right direction) x 1.0 module (orthogonal direction). In other words, the depth dimension L3 of walkable area 22b is, for example, 1.0 module.
[0047] The desk 61 includes at least a top panel 61a disposed at a predetermined height (H1). The top panel 61a extends laterally between two standing wall portions 81 and 82. It is desirable that a wiring hole (not shown) be provided in the top panel 61a. The desk 61 may be a PC desk having legs 61b and a shelf 61c, or a counter desk having only the top panel 61a. The height H1 of the top panel 61a is approximately 700 to 800 mm. The width L1 of the top panel 61a corresponds to the distance between the standing wall portions 81 and 82, and therefore corresponds to 1.5 modules in this embodiment, but can be selected between 1.0 and 2.0 modules, for example. It is anticipated that the height H2 of the standing wall portion 81 is approximately 800 to 1000 mm. It is desirable that the height H2 of the standing wall portion 81 be 100 mm or more higher than the height H1 of the top panel 61a.
[0048] At least one outlet 63 is provided in the portion of the partition wall 51 facing the desk placement area 22d. In this embodiment, two outlets 63 are provided above and below the top plate 61a. The left-right positions of the outlets 63 are preferably the same as or close to the positions of the wiring holes.
[0049] An outlet 64 may also be provided in a portion of the partition wall 51 facing the shelf arrangement area 22s. Although it is desirable to provide a plurality of outlets 63, 64 in the portion of the partition wall 51 facing the furniture area 22a (i.e., the second portion 51b), the number of outlets may be one.
[0050] Dimmable lighting fixtures 65 are provided on the ceiling of the workspace 22. The lighting fixtures 65 are provided, for example, on the ceiling of the walkable area 22b. Referring to FIG. 1, it is desirable to provide a plurality of lighting fixtures 65 (for example, two) corresponding to each of the desk arrangement area 22d and the shelf arrangement area 22s. The lighting fixtures 65 are switchable, by user operation or the like, between white (daylight color) suitable for work and the same warm color (incandescent color) as the lighting fixtures 83 in the living space 21 of the private room 20. An operation button (not shown) for the lighting fixtures 65 may be provided near the opening of the partition wall 55.
[0051] As described above, workspace 22 is equipped with facilities that enable teleworking from home. That is, workspace 22 in this embodiment is provided with a built-in desk 61 and storage shelf 62, at least one outlet 63 (64) is provided in the partition wall 51 in front of desk 61, and a dimmable white light fixture 65 is provided in the ceiling of workspace 22. This allows the occupant to comfortably perform desk work in workspace 22. Note that the outlet may be provided in wall 54 or partition wall 55; it is sufficient that at least one outlet is provided in any of the side walls surrounding workspace 22.
[0052] As described above, the partition wall 51 is provided with an opening 70 that communicates with the living room 10. The opening 70 is provided on the front side of the desk 61. In other words, the desk 61 is arranged to face the opening 70. The opening 70 is provided in a portion of the partition wall 51 (second portion 51b) that faces the desk placement area 22d and is located higher than the desk 61. Therefore, the resident can perform teleworking while maintaining a connection to the living room 10.
[0053] In this embodiment, a light-transmitting interior window 71 is provided in the opening 70. The interior window 71 includes, for example, a fixed window 72 that cannot be opened or closed, and an openable and closable sliding window 73. The sliding window 73 is located above the fixed window 72 and is a horizontal sliding window that can be opened and closed in one direction with its upper end as a rotation axis.
[0054] Referring to FIG. 3(A), it is desirable that the bottom height H11 of the opening 70 be 1200 mm or more and 1600 mm or less. When a resident sits in front of the desk 61 (chair not shown), the resident's eye level H10 is expected to be 1100 to 1200 mm. Therefore, by setting the bottom height H11 of the opening 70 to 1200 mm or more, the resident cannot see the living room 10 when sitting, allowing them to concentrate on their work without being distracted. On the other hand, by setting the bottom height H11 of the opening 70 to 1600 mm or less, the resident can see the living room 10 when standing, allowing them to communicate with other resident (children, etc.) spending time in the living room 10 while in the workspace 22, if necessary.
[0055] In order to facilitate communication with children in the living room 10, it is more desirable that the lower end height H11 of the opening 70 be 1200 mm or more and 1400 mm or less.
[0056] As shown in Figure 3(B), when an adult resident is standing in the living room 10, the resident's eye level H20 is expected to be approximately 1400 to 1600 mm. Because the bottom height H11 of the opening 70 is 1200 mm or more, the desk 61 cannot be seen from the living room 10 side. Therefore, documents on the desk 61 can be kept confidential. Furthermore, when looking at the opening 70 (interior window 71) from the living room 10, all that can be seen is the partition wall 55, which is one of the side walls of the workspace 22, so the privacy of the living space 21 of the private room 20 can be ensured.
[0057] As shown in Figures 2 and 3(A), the interior window 71 is composed of, for example, two rows of fixed windows 72 (top and bottom) and one row of sliding windows 73, with these windows 72, 73 lined up two on each side. It is desirable that the height of the top of the interior window 71 (opening 70) is close to the ceiling height. Specifically, the interior window 71 may be provided so that its top is aligned with the top height (ceiling height) of the partition wall 51. However, the configuration of the interior window 71 is not limited to this example.
[0058] As shown in Figure 3(B), the interior window 71A may be composed of, for example, one stage of fixed window 72 and one stage of sliding window 73. In this case, too, it is desirable that the upper end height of the interior window 71A (opening 70) is near the ceiling height, and specifically, the interior window 71A may be provided so that its upper end height H30 coincides with the upper end height of the doorway 20a of the private room 20. In this case, the upper end height of the interior window 71A will be the same as that of the fittings (sliding door, hinged door, etc.) provided at the doorway 20a of the private room 20, creating a sense of unity and improving the design.
[0059] In this way, the interior window 71 (71A) has an openable sliding window 73, which also allows ventilation between the living room 10 and the workspace 22. The sliding window 73 is attached so that it can be pushed open from the living room 10 side so that it does not rest on the desk 61 when opening or closing. In other words, as shown in Figures 3(A) and (B), the sliding window 73 is attached so that it can be opened toward the workspace 22 side. This prevents damage to the desk 61 due to excessive weight, even if the desk 61 is a counter desk without legs 61b.
[0060] As described above, workspace 22 in this embodiment is not a closed space like a conventional workroom, but a loosely enclosed semi-closed space, and has an interior window 71 that communicates with living room 10. Therefore, a resident can concentrate on work in workspace 22 while feeling the presence of living room 10. Conversely, other residents in living room 10 can sense the presence of the resident in workspace 22 through interior window 71, which can encourage other residents to be considerate of the resident who is teleworking.
[0061] Furthermore, by fully closing the doorway 20a of the private room 20 and also fully closing the sliding window 73 of the interior window 71, it is possible to block out (to some extent) the sounds of daily life in the living room 10, allowing the resident to hold a remote meeting in the workspace 22 without wearing earphones or a microphone. Therefore, the workspace 22 can function as an optimal space for working from home.
[0062] In addition, workspace 22 is seamlessly connected to living space 21 facing window 23 leading to the outdoors, and light from bright living room 10 facing window 12 leading to the outdoors is taken in through interior window 71 into desk placement area 22d of partition wall 51, so a bright telework space without a feeling of claustrophobia can be created even in apartment buildings where it is difficult to set up a workspace near an exterior wall.
[0063] Furthermore, the lighting fixtures 65 in the workspace 22 are dimmable, and the light color of the lighting fixtures 65 can be matched to the light color of the lighting fixtures 83 in the living space 21 of the private room 20. Therefore, during times when teleworking is not being performed, the workspace 22 can be used as a free space attached to the living space 21. Furthermore, because the lighting fixtures 65 in the workspace 22 are dimmable, even families who do not plan to work from home can use the workspace 22 as a convenient free space.
[0064] Furthermore, because private room 20 has living space 21 that functions similarly to other private rooms 30 and workspace 22, House 1 can be offered as an attractive property not only for families who regularly work from home, but also for families who do not plan to work from home. As a result, the occupancy rate of House 1 increases, which can improve the profits of the owner of House 1.
[0065] <Modification> In this embodiment, the entrance 24a of the storage space 24 is provided in the partition wall 56 on the living space 21 side (i.e., the boundary with the living space 21), but as shown in Figure 4 (A), it may also be provided in the partition wall 55 on the workspace 22 side (i.e., the boundary with the workspace 22). In this case, the degree of freedom in arranging furniture within the living space 21 is increased.
[0066] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the desk 61 of the workspace 22 is arranged facing the partition wall 51 (second portion 51b), but this is not limited to this example and the desk 61 may be arranged facing any of the side walls surrounding the workspace 22 on three sides. For example, as shown in FIG. 4(B), the desk 61 may be arranged facing the wall 54 of the private room 20. In this case, the entire frontage of the workspace 22 can be used as an entrance / exit from the living space 21.
[0067] 4(C), desks 61 may be arranged in an L-shape along the partition wall 51 and the wall 54 within the workspace 22. In this case, multiple residents can telework simultaneously within the workspace 22.
[0068] 4(C), the storage shelf 62 may be provided on the front side of the workspace 22. Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 4(B), the workspace 22 may not have the storage shelf 62.
[0069] <Other variations> In this embodiment, storage space 24 is provided within private room 20, but storage space 24 does not have to be provided. In other words, private room 20 may be composed of living space 21 and workspace 22. Even in this case, it is desirable that living space 21 and workspace 22, which are formed in a rectangular shape, are provided without a partition along partition wall 51 so that the front width W2 (FIG. 3(A)) of workspace 22 is smaller than the overall width W1 (FIG. 1) of living space 21. In other words, the planar shape of the entire private room 20 may be a shape combining two rectangles of different sizes (a shape with projections and recesses).
[0070] In addition, in this embodiment, the interior window 71 provided in the opening 70 includes a fixed window 72 and a sliding window 73, but it may include only one of them. Also, although the openable window is a sliding window 73, other types of windows such as a sliding window may be used.
[0071] Furthermore, although an interior window 71 is provided in the opening 70, the interior window 71 may not be provided. In other words, the living room 10 and the workspace 22 may be in constant spatial communication with each other through the opening 70.
[0072] The structure of the house 1 of this embodiment can be applied not only to rental apartment buildings but also to condominium apartment buildings for sale. The structure of the house 1 of this embodiment can also be applied to detached houses.
[0073] The embodiments disclosed herein should be considered to be illustrative in all respects and not restrictive. The scope of the present invention is defined by the claims, not by the above description, and is intended to include all modifications within the meaning and scope of the claims.
