鼓動する住宅
３組の家族のために設計した１棟の住宅である。利便性の高い都心に残る下町に位置し、近隣の付き合いも頻繁な細路地が続く住宅密集地である。建主は家族が昔から住んでいた土地の隣地を購入し、新たな家族の居場所を計画した。およそ10m×10m×10mのヴォリュームは、鉄筋コンクリート壁構造の外周壁、外殻からセットバックした３枚の格子梁床スラブ、そしてその床スラブと外周壁を構造的につなぐ幾何学的な形象とで構成されていて、そのほかの内部は木造で設えられている。大家族→核家族→個人→複数の個人（シェア）と、住みては大きな単位から徐々に分解してきた。この建築は密集した都市から一度閉じ、建築の外郭から３組の家族の居場所をオフセットさせ、それぞれの単位が明快となっている。外周部の隙間に配置された幾何学の継承が、ところどころ上下を関係付け、境界の表面積を増やしている。それらは日常の生活の中でお互いの意識を誘う仕掛けとなり新たな距離感を創出する。超高齢化社会で複数の個人や家族が集まった暮らしにシフトしていく背景を意識し、家族が独立しながらも日常的に距離を縮める新たな要素として、それらが住宅の鼓動する身体の器官のようにふるまえないかと考えた。
beating house
This is a single house designed for three families. The house is located in a densely populated residential area with narrow alleys where neighbors often socialize. The client purchased the land adjacent to the family's old home and planned a new place for the family to live. The 10x10x10m volume consists of a reinforced concrete wall structure, three lattice-beam floor slabs set back from the outer shell, and geometric shapes that structurally connect the floor slabs to the wall structure. From a large family to a nuclear family, to an individual, to multiple individuals (sharing), living has been gradually decomposing from a large unit. By offsetting the locations of the three families from the building's perimeter, each unit becomes clearer. The geometric figures placed in the gaps around the perimeter are related to the top and bottom in places, increasing the surface area of the church. They become a mechanism that invites us to be aware of each other in our daily lives, creating a new sense of distance. Conscious of the background of the shift to living with multiple individuals and families in a super-aging society, I wondered if these elements could act like the beating body organs of a house, as new elements to shorten the distance between families on a daily basis while keeping them independent.
