It's a house like an environmental amplification device. The owner once lived in Hawaii, and it seemed that he superimposed the mental landscape of that time on this project as a final home. The site is in a residential area, requires a strong level of privacy, and there is not much nature. However, there are elements that can be called fragments of the environment, such as the wide sky, sunshine, and local winds that are unique to rural plains. To scoop and amplify them and increase the points of contact between nature and life, we prepared two boxes that control light and darkness. In the box on south side, a perforated block curtain wall of H4.4m/W13.5m/t150mm and a 17m long basin pick up the behavior of light and wind and convey it to rooms. The 2242 triangular holes change the light projection surface over time. It also changes the range of transparency of landscape depending on standing position, like a directional screen. It created a unique sense of distance in which pixelated landscapes and light coexist. On the north side, shadows of the small gardens and deep eaves create quiet areas and enhance the contrast of the house. Although not a house built to adapt to the tropical climate, we have connected the owner's precious past and new life through the tropical modernist mindset of incorporating natural phenomena and life into architecture.

環境を増幅する住宅である。施主はかつてハワイで過ごした経験をもち、終の住処としての本計画にもその心象風景を重ねるようだった。民家が取り囲む敷地は、プライバシー要求が高く自然も多くはないが、地方平野部に特有の広い空や日照、局地風など、環境の断片と呼べる要素はあった。それらを掬い取って増幅し、自然と生活の接点を増やすため、明暗を司る2つの箱を設けた。南側の箱では、H4.4m×W13.5m×t150mmの花ブロックカーテンウォールと17m長の水盤が、光や風の挙動を拾いLDKへと伝える。2242ヶ所の三角孔は、その形状から光の投射面が時間で変化し、また指向性スクリーンのように立ち位置によって風景の透過範囲が変わるため、適度な通風と共に、ピクセル化した風景と光が混在する独特な距離感を生んだ。北側の箱では、点在する坪庭の木漏れ日や深い軒による濃い陰影が、寝室等の静かな場をつくり、家全体のコントラストを助長する。熱帯気候への適応性に由来する建築ではないが、自然現象と生活を建築に内包するトロピカルモダニズムの作法を通じ、施主の大切な記憶と新たな生活の接点となる場を目指した。
