Indoor Basketball Court - Interior/Basketball Court

An indoor basketball court forms the atrium of this family home in eastern Japan by local firm, Koizumi Sekkei. Rooms surround the wooden court, but are protected from stray balls by sliding doors and metal grilles.

"The layout arrangement of this house is inspired by typical gymnasium layouts, where we have the indoor basketball court planned in the central core of the house, with rooms located on opposite sides of the court," explained Koizumi Sekkei.
