長浜のいえ

滋賀県長浜市に建つ住宅。
敷地の南西側には住宅が並び、敷地西側は近隣住民の歩行がメインで車の交通量の少ない道路に面している。
これに対し、敷地の北東側は空地や田畑が広がり遠方の山まで見通せ、のどかな風景が一望できるが、その手前の敷地北側は交通量が多く、通過する車のスピードも速い道路に面している。
このように周辺環境には異なるスピードやスケールが存在し、互いが徐々にスケールアップ/ダウンしながら連続的につながってはおらず、異なるスピードやスケールが同時に重なっている状況だと捉えることができる。
ここではそれぞれの異なる状況に対して関係性をつくる、「開かれている状態」をつくることを試みた。
ひとつの対象に対して直接的に開くというよりも間に緩衝帯を介することで複数の対象に対して同時に開いていくような住宅である。
建物は敷地四周を回遊する平屋ボリューム、その口の字型のボリュームを一部持ち上げたかたちとすることで1階は近隣住戸に対して開き、2階は遠景に対して開いている。持ち上げられた2階の下は近隣との立ち話をするような「大きな軒下空間」となる。
建物中央は視線が外に抜けていく「閉じない中庭」になり、街路や車道、遠景それぞれに対して同時に関係性が生まれる。
中庭越しに見える自分の家はひとつながりの空間でありながら周辺環境と並置され隣の家のようにも見え、住宅内でのやり取りや近隣とのやり取りが同時多発的に行われる。
フレキシブルボードに覆われた外観は広大な彩度の柔らかな風景に馴染むと同時に淡く黄金に染色されたアルミの押し縁が天候に応じ異なる光を発し、遠景からの風景の色彩に変化を加えている。

House in Nagahama

The house is located in Nagahama city , Shiga, Japan,
Nagahama is an old town. There are more active relationships within the neighborhood community than in Tokyo.
On the other hand, Nagahama is conventional modernized city with cars and shopping malls along the main roads. It is common in many local cities in Japan.
The site is bounded by the residential area on the southwest; the road on the west is mainly used for the pedestrians.
There is a peaceful landscape on the northeast, where the rice fields and empty lots spread to Mt. Ibuki. However, on the north of the site there is a traffical street where a lot of cars passing by.
The client requested the house opened to community to be able to neighborhoods easily come by. However they also asked us keep the driveway noise away from the house.
Regarding the inner space, they placed top priority to see the existence each other in the house.
We arranged the corridor around the courtyard so that the family can see each other. At the same time we managed to make the courtyard open to the community. We planned a space that holds various relationships within the variety of environment.
The house has an approximately square with a courtyard in the center. We lifted the southwest corner of the house so that the house has unclosed courtyard at the center. The first floor which opens to the neighborhood acts as an ”ENGAWA “ where neighborhood can easily get together. From the second floor which opens to the distant view, Mt. Ibuki can be seen over the courtyard and roof of this house.
 To the surrounding enviroment , the space was created by providing a” buffer zone” instead of the space directly opens to a particular subject.
 The central unclosed courtyard spontaneously opens up to each surrounding elements. Looking at the house across the courtyard, it appear to be parallelly -placed neighboring house among surrounding enviroment.
In Japan for a long time, the space under the eaves where called “NOKISHITA” facing the street has been used as a place of community where neighborhood can gather .
Therefore we created the large eave’s space under the lifted volume . And we adjusted the NOKISHITA space to the same height as the house next door so as to make a community space which acts as buffer between street and inner space.
On the other hand espacially when looked from a car running the street the façade is may appeared to be as aseries of walls.
The facade is covered with the fiber cement board fixed with gold stained aluminum. However this dried texture of the exterior fit into the landscape, as the weather change, those stripes of low reflective stained aluminum gives a different variety of radiance to its façade moment to moment.
