The Katsuura House, completed in 1977 in Chiba Prefecture, represents a significant work by the Ikehara Laboratory during Japan's postmodern architectural period. This residential project demonstrates the studio's distinctive approach to residential design, balancing modernist principles with contextual sensitivity to its coastal location. The house exemplifies the experimental architectural thinking of the late 1970s, featuring innovative spatial compositions and material treatments. Located in the seaside town of Katsuura, the residence reflects the era's architectural discourse while addressing the practical demands of residential living. The work remains an important reference point for understanding Japanese residential architecture of this period.
