A sketchup model of a single-floor merchant's house, where the shopfront has been enclosed to form a large Shoin (bay window with a desk). Note, the earthen floor portion is the home's entry and kitchen. The module at the back is an added-on private bath and toilet. This house is from a floorplan in The Measure and Construction of the Japanese House, by German Architect Heino Engel (my favorite architect).

A Kominka from the same manual rendered in the same software from 20 years ago. The Amado are moved aside to show the shoji doors (which are frosted glass in this rendering, but not in the original building.)
