About The House for Contemporary Art Rezidencija

Ovaj dom je dizajniran za cijenitelja umjetnosti i umjetnika amatera koji je želio „kuću kao muzej umjetnosti“. Planirana s pažljivim razmatranjem cirkulacije zraka, kao i oštre, snježne klime na obali Japanskog mora, struktura se sastoji od bijelih kutija različitih veličina koje uokviruju prostore poput slika. Jedan od glavnih koncepata je 'Bešavna prostorna kompozicija'. Možete kružiti prostorima u ovom domu gledajući zbirku umjetničkih djela vlasnika baš kao da prolazite kroz galerije u muzeju.

Unique Properties
SEAMLESS SPATIAL COMPOSITION
You can circulate through the spaces in this home looking at the owner’s collection of artwork just as if you were passing through galleries in a museum.

RESPONSE TO THE ENVIRONMENT
The first was dealing with the snow. In regions with heavy snow, the shape of the roof is very important. Many homes are built on the assumption that someone will shovel the snow off the roof, but that’s a lot of heavy work, and dangerous. We decided on a flat roof with no parapet that would stay relatively snow-free because of wind action.
Our second thing was to create good airflow.

Design Challenge
To encourage natural ventilation, we created a temperature differential by designing two gardens, one on the south side that would warm up easily, and one on the north side that would remain cool. This is a traditional design method used in Kyoto townhouses.
Research
It goes without saying that our top priority was fulfilling the client’s wishes. We began by measuring the many works of art that the client had created and collected over the years. Next, we held a number of planning meetings to discuss where to display each work of art, among other issues. For instance, we determined the height of the living room ceiling based on the wall size that could accommodate a painting measuring over 1.5 x 1 meter. In addition to the art collection, the client also has a large number of old records, mostly jazz. It was important for us to figure out a way to display them.
Inspiration
We designed this home for an art appreciator and amateur artist who wanted a house like an art museum. Planned with careful consideration for air circulation as well as for the harsh, snowy climate of the Japan Sea coast, the structure is composed of white boxes of varying scale that frame spaces like pictures.
