Year 2 / Program: House / Instructor: Kumiko Inui, Kazuyasu Kouchi

In this housing project, I tried to modify usual elemnts of housing. Composition is responing to site ondition ; the front area is a new-housing area which comprises of pre-fabricated housings, and the back area is a “condensed area of wooden housing” . This house has its facade only in front of the house reflecting the typical commercial housing. A trimmed piece of a house creates a wired vacant space in a condensed area. You will go up

Ostranenie

entrance door and open the door to find this vacant space connects to a larger scale. This void connects to a semi-public space with a piano facing to an intersection of narrow paths which is an emergency route for “condensed area of wooden houses” Usual elements of housing are reconstructed in contradicting way in this house. A basement of the house and main story and roof structure connect each other by small void. A circle table is divided by glasses into two pieces; one is inside dinner, another is outside feeding space for birds. Stairs go up around a chimney and some of them stretch to be a toilet space or balcony for laundry.

Year 2 / Housing Complex / Instructor : Tom Heneghan

Through designing a housing complex in a central part of Tokyo, I tried to find new meaning in "inbetween" spaces. This area is comprised of mid-tall buildings which stand independently and very close to each other.

In-between

This building is comprised of two volumes of SOHO and has two continuous envelopes which open to central in-between space. This vertical void has a slope sawing two volumes and works as a semi-public library. Space In between the ground and the envelope works as a bookshop, and the space in between the sky and the envelope works as a theater. These three in-between space is connecting together to create a sequence of public spaces from a public bath and a public park.

Reference "Family Game" (1983) by Yoshimitsu Morita revealed modern family, and its educational system is fragile. Referencing the tutor in the center of this famose shot, I create a vacant space in the center of “Framing House” and “Slope in School” as a questioning attitude to the system.

As I observe the place, I noticed that they interionized the stairs by bringing furniture and plants spontaneously, and they recognize surroundings as their territory (they suspiciously look at me when I standing adjacent stairs). And I started to call this space as “Urban Room” and consciously searched around the site.

In collaboration with two students, I apply my research “Urban Room” to the district design. “Urban Rooms” breaks the hierarchy between main space and secondary space, creates richness in inbetween space, and create new continuity to the district.

Urban Room

The building complex continues from the crossing of main roads to the condensed area. It includes commercial, office, residence. Each students had done different approach; student-A

Design Phase

design volume of the building, student-B researched composition of boundaries. Student-A studied building volumes which creates continuity from an intersection of the main road to back roads. Student-B had researched 3-dimensional patterns which indicates the composition of boundaries. Her research creates a complicated attitude to a specific approach from town. My research was applied to reconstruct hierarchy of volume study to create sub-sequence which narratively connects residences and workers to the urban city. Each “rooms” follows construction system which team member had researched. Physical Model S-1/500

In Highschool of Tsukuba University, I joined the research of Okinawa in which includes Okinawa’s unique culture and historical heritage of WWII. In 2014, I spontaneously visited the North East Part of Japan to learn the impact and recovery from “Aftermath of the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami”.

Field Trips

In Tokyo University of the Arts, I stayed “Antique Art Research Facilities” (Nara, Japan) for two weeks to visit Japanese traditional architectures in the western part of Japan. As a spontaneous trip, I personally visited Kyoto and Nara several times a year to see Japanese traditional architecture which has become a great source of my inspiration. I also visited Athena, Roma, Firenze, Milan to learn western architectural history.

made from acrylic and copper tube. Each unit was fabricated by a laser cutter.

This is a real construction studio done by 15 students. This shell is geometlicaly conprised by three differennt HPs. I was responsible for modeling by grashopper. We discussed height based on my parametrical model. We also checked the strength of a conrete to make it as thin as possible. Consequently, one continuous concrete creates three confortable spaces.

Riverside Project

Riverside Restaurant is located in District 2, Ho Chi Mihn City. I joined this project from the concept phase. Roofs coming from two sides of the site creating a valley. This shape reflects old terrain and exiting palm trees at the center. After the "Mekong River Research", we refered to the fish pond and made a corridor frame at the two side.

complex / Shunri Nishizawa, Sou Kawai

Nishizawa Architects collaborates with Kawai Studio in Shiga Univ. in “Mekong River Research”. We have researched water housing and will design a housing complex. In this field research, I encountered the construction site of a huge fish pen below their house and realized water can be a metaphor of “empty space”.
