個の集まりとしての家
街を見下ろす南向きの明るい丘陵地に、緑豊かな公園が広がる。隣接する住宅地との境を三角形に切り取ったような場所に建つ、家族4人の住まい。メインボリュームは高さを抑えた平屋として、公園の地面がこの家の庭である屋上へと続いていくような関係とした。
公園にベンチや街灯が置かれ、背の高い木や低木、草花があちらこちらにある。それが延長するように、この家の大きなワンルームにも家具や階段や柱や壁などが、それぞれの場所に佇んでいる。また、持ち込まれる家具や生活用品にそれぞれの色とかたちがある。この周辺環境と住まい手のさまざまな個性をもつものたちのように、柱や階段にもそれぞれ個が際立つような色とかたちを持たせた。まず目指す空間があるのではなく、生き生きとした個の集まりとしての建築。個々の色は生活によって混ざり合い、大きな色彩のうねりによってひとつの家になることを目指した。
一見無秩序に見える柱は、将来屋上に増築予定の子ども部屋の位置に合わせている。３つある階段のうちのふたつは、この子ども部屋へ上がるためのもので、今はトップライト下のちいさなニッチとなっている。もうひとつの階段は、屋上に設けられたシアタールームにつながっている。
父、母、兄、妹、家族ひとりひとり家の捉え方が違い、動き方も過ごし方も異なる。ばらばらに散らばるものを結びつけながら、その間を自由に動き回る。それぞれの世界、それぞれが見る間取りがパラレルに存在するような家だ。
A house as a collection of individuals
On a hill located at a little distance from the center of town is a verdant public park with an expansive view of the town at the foot of a cliff. At the end of the park is a property that looks like a triangular section with an old house that was to be demolished and a garden brightened by colorful berries and flowers. A new house is planned in this place for a designer couple and their two small children. They live in an apartment with a typical three-bedroom layout, but the walls, doors, and windows seem to have little influence on how the family places their furniture and belongings for their convenience. Each family member makes the most of the space in the three-bedroom apartment, and their nomadic lifestyle seems to exceed the floor plan.
Since the couple thinks it would be more convenient to have all the rooms connected while their children are still small, I decided to place the volume of a comfortably wide, single-story house in the center of the site. On the scenic rooftop is a small room where all four family members can gather and a space surrounded by a 20cm rise for building two additional private rooms for the children in the future. This luxurious rooftop will have some playground equipment and a set of table and chairs like a personal playground that feels like an extension of the neighboring park.
Pillars and the staircase spread throughout the lower floors and, together with the furniture and housewares that the family brings in, creates a terrain-like unevenness in the great room. The house has a string of spaces with no specific names, such as the area under the stairs next to the kitchen or the space around the pillar near the bathroom, and I picture the family freely making full use of those spaces.
