THE MUSEUM OF DIGITAL ART Kinki University 3rd year studio, May 2014 to July 2014 After World War II, the north end of the famous Osaka castle had been seen as an unattractive brown field since an arms factory occupied that area during the war.

Decades later, in 1982, Japan’s booming economy assists the local city government to redevelop the area as a new business-commercial core of the city.

Multiple skyscrapers have been built on the outskirts of the castle. However, in

the1990's, Japan’s bubble economy burst and the ensuing financial crisis put citizenry’s images of this kind of development as “ policy without software”. At present, the current outlook isn't much different from that of the 90's; in fact, Japan’s long recession may be even worse in the minds of the people.

Since manufacturing based industries have been declining, tourism industries are

becoming proportionally bigger than ever.

With the rich context of history from the from 5th century, new architecture built there must be iconic, showing the 21st century and challenging the current situation.

In the 3rd year studio I proposed a museum for rising digital installations on this site.

The main focus of the project was on the cultural aspect, branding the area and

bringing people together through physical perspective. People must know it is not just the architectural sculpture but also meaningful and with purpose.

Looking up the building from north side across river, the reection of building is giving the sense of calmness at night. It is able to connect contradictory sense of solemness and transparent. In another word it is gallant however still opened and welcoming pedestrian experience. There is less feeling of gravity than the solid buildings surroundings.

Inside the steel frame, structures are plain and industrial, almost looking like it is still under construction. Jumbotrons and billboards are representing the

contents of each exhibition room inside. They are book covers of architectural and cultural adventures that visitors are going to experience.

The site is on the confluence therefore building there would be inevitably very iconic as it is like the head pin of bowling. The building is standing as iconic landmark with complicated but revealing programs, without being the figurehead of 20th century.

When it fails.

As an architect, or a salesperson of a building, it seems contradictory, even pessimistic, to indicate that the future of a building’s programs will fail. However, I am a realist and skeptical enough about present-day conventional systemssuch as museums.In fact, it is likely museums will not be the major supplier of art for future generations. The structure of the building will last for more than 50 years. In this regard, it is always good to predict future scenarios.Perhaps this museum will be closed and the structure will become a massive car park with neon and billboard signs labeling it as failure of planning.

Fairmont, a major West Virginia industrial city is the seat of Marion County and commercial center of the Fairmont Field, a rich bituminous coal mining region of north-central West Virginia. Famous for its picturesque and hilly topography, Fairmont occupies a series of steep, rugged hills near the confluence of the Tygarts Valley and West Fork Rivers. The Monongahela divides the city into East and West sections. Within most areas of the city, including the commercial core, streets possess steep grades and many sidewalks rise to the street above in a terrace effect. A number of commercial buildings in the downtown, especially along Cleveland and Washington streets, feature low two or three-story front elevations and rear sections that may descend a number of stories to the grade below.

(Quotes from 1990 City Hall Document)

Beltline Community Project

West Virginia University, Course LA351, Professor Charles B. Yuill, 2015, Spring The project took place in small community called Beltline south-side of the downtown of Fairmont, WV. Project contains comprehensive inventory, analysis and design proposal. Design was exhibited to local people.

The plan of the park is associate with : ①geographical features, ②social conditions. On the rugged terrain, repetitive road patterns are placed and the design of the park is absorbing this mechanism not just as a presentation of the condition but as a modifier of the relationship between community, vernacular identity and the natural system we live in. >historical >suburban >contemporary core

By overlaying contours and street path, grid pattern on our project site (around buildings indicated in red) is highly defined based on 2 dimensions X and Y. It almost stands for there is no slopes, yet the site is highly elevated.

Monongah river filled with black is lying calmly down east slope of our site. The slope between them are mostly inhibited by deciduous tree planted in early 20’s century. Residential area and this natural feature such as river and surrounding swale are separated by bus depot, salvage yard and ruins of Fairmont coal company building that indicated in red.

The map below indicates how the city's core has changed in terms of both the social aspect as well as the business operation. Grey rectangles stand for range of map shown left, black lines indicate major roads, and black filled shapesshow the commercial core of the city. Until the 90's, the downtown was the heart of the city. However, since the opening of a strip mall in the suburban area 3 miles south of downtown,the downtown areais now just the image of core, radiating identity of city, but not the place of gathering for the community.

A Island, Patterns, Narratives Architectural Competition, July 2015

In the small island located in western Japan, people’slives are strongly tied with nature. On Shodo Island, I proposed 2-story housing in the dense and traditional residential district. The client is an elderly couple trying to renovate their storage area into auxiliary housing. The essential keys for my design proposal are the natural features and cultural traditions of the small isolated island. For example, patterns seen in the terraced rice patty fields in the central part of island are the result of the

peoples’ rustic lifestyle combined withMother Nature’s topology. The relationship between these patterns and topology was also confirmed in my review of a famous novel based on the island called “24 Eyes”.

The story was written by Sakae Tsuboi, who spent most of her childhood on the island. While the touching and emotive story of a teacher’s life is chronicled with its students, the character’s emotions are described with specific “places” along

with unique emotions and expressions. The winding path going down to the cape is used to express the teacher’s unconditional happiness, commuting to school to meet the students. In the story, an abandoned village close to the cape is a personification of unhappiness. The figure shown above is an extraction of the various subplots within the novel, along with plot lines expressingthe various emotions seen in the island story.

The structure of the city, intricate like maze and having various faces are legacy inherited for few hundreds years. Buildings are constructed in generations and generations with its own style of facades, elevations and materials. It sounds random yet there is certain rhythm created by sequence of traditional Ibushi-Kawara Style roofs and honest expressions of solid wood are abstracting the sequence.

There is a narrative which could be terned into golden novel grabbed nation’s heart, inserting geometric facade building into the sequence of streestscape comprehensively express it. The design is not trying to modify things. It’s dedicating to tell the story of town and island in modest and fatalistic way.

From the view of pedestrian, hallway cutting through the facade is will become frame for the life pictured in there.

It’ s weird someone has car here

Let’ s take a look

The conserved tiled roof is resonant with neighbors skyline in terms of height and material.

Do not get lost!

You are

Feels like I’ m in maze

Can we get in here?

It is called the house of maze. It is founded by local artists for encouraging tourism. Inside, there is maze with art like painting, sculpture and installations. On the holiday season many tourists are stopped in front of it.

On the entrance of the building, people are intersecting in various ways. May be postman chatting with a resident, perhaps tourists asking stroller taking picture of them with the building.

Sequential Elevation

Alley is not just used by people commuting for work and school, tourist and shortcut for bigger road. So that it is enclosing various traffic.

This building was used to be orthopedics, however now there is no business and it is used by local company as storage and also functioning as place for town meeting.

component Since the site is in dense traditional neighborhood, it is hard to develop area with big machines.

Thus I picked to renovate the house with maximizing its existing structure and surface materials that beautifully desaturated in relentless natural environment.

concept

As a proposal for memorial of the mining disaster, whole design of the site is associating with historical contexts. Picture shown left indicates the geographical relationship between the historical site and our project site. Axial path radiating from the center of the site is precisely placed along the red plot lines shown. The shape of loop decking has proportion with distane to each historical sites. These axis will give visiter not only geographical connection with the historical sites but also helps capturing the incident as explicit image.

Monongah Mine Disaster Memorial

West Virginia University, Course LA351, Professor Charles B. Yuill, 2015, Spring The site is located in a neigborhood called Monongah; 4 miles west from downtown of Farimont, famously, the biggest American coal mining tragedy was taken place 100 years ago. The community is facing problems that luck of recreation facilities and culture activies. In this design, the process was impremented by associating with hisotrical narrative and photomontage inorder to define and examine abstracuted ecological and both cultural concept. The core of design is a memorial of the mining disaster which conposed by the radial axis cut through mounds. Pedistrian circula-

tion is placed along the axis connecting historical site and project site.

Objects along path are not stairs but acutually sleeper implicating coal railway.

Note: It was originally a group project, however, everything put on here is completely done by myself including all inventories and designs.

The picture above is photomontage with three poems created for orienting ecological concept for design. Through out study, I found it profound and strong that landscape of a straight mine roadway cutting through ground and going downword under ground surface.
