The construction system for the Furniture House features factory produced full-height units that function as structural elements as well as space-defining elements. Since these units are pre-fabricated, construction time on-site is greatly reduced and cost-effective. Serving both as the furniture and as the building material, these units enable a reduction of equipment and labor, as well. (The dimensions of the units used in this house are 2.4 meters high, 0.9 meters wide, with an 0.45 meters depth for bookcases and a 690mm depth for other units.) An individual unit, weighing about 79.2kg, can be easily handled by a single person, and its self-supporting function makes the arrangement simple.
「家具の家」の考え方のきっかけは「詩人の書庫」の本棚にあり、工場生産された家具に構造的そして空間構成的役割をあわせ持たせている。現場での大工工事に比べ、工場で家具職人の手により内外装の塗装まですませることができ、高いクオリティーが得られるだけでなく、躯体と家具を兼ねることにより、材料と手間が減って現場工事が短縮され、総工費は大幅に軽減できる。
