Gave
Gave is a multi-unit residence with attached garages, completed in Osaka, Japan. Each unit links a private garage directly to a studio or office space, so residents move from the car to the home with ease. The building has a steel structure and two floors. A column-free garage entrance allows large vehicles to enter and leave smoothly. Large slabs of natural Ena stone form the main gate, and the floating second floor works as a canopy. Wide driveways, planting and shared terraces create a quiet and private setting.
Gave Residence by Michihiro Matsuo was highlighted as a creative example of architectural design by the A' Design Award. Gave Residence earned the Bronze A' Design Award in Architecture, Building and Structure Design in 2026. The A' Architecture, Building and Structure Design Award is a highly prestigious, international, juried design prize which honors exceptional design of skyscrapers, museums, residential buildings, commercial complexes, educational institutions, religious structures, infrastructure designs, landscaping projects and more.
