My Neighbour Totoro in the Rear Window explores the spatial relationship of two polarizing film characters: Totoro, the forest spirit from Studio Ghibli’s My Neighbour Totoro, and Stella, a travelling nurse from Alfred Hitchcock’s Rear Window. Designed around their distinct bodily proportions, the architecture investigates how scale, space, and movement are affected when these figures are juxtaposed. The project unfolds through a series of sectional studies that contrast Totoro’s cavernous dwelling spaces with Stella’s functionalist apartment. Totoro’s large size, ability to fly, and affinity for natural spaces were considered in juxtaposition to Stella’s pragmatic, witty, and intuitive nature. This dialogue between the two characters challenges conventional circulation patterns and fosters an unexpected choreography of movement and inhabitation. Through these shifting spatial relationships, the project becomes a study of coexistence, asking how architecture can mediate between beings of radically different scales and ways of occupying space.
