- Production Technology
- The masonry structure employed in this building has the aptitude to resist earthquakes and typhoons without damaging the earth.
The building was calculated and planned using the limit capacity design method, which is based on the frictional and restorative forces resulting from the combination of members, a characteristic of wooden architecture. It is truly an epoch-making building that makes full use of traditional Japanese construction methods and new technologies. - Design Challenge
- function and reflect its role without eclipsing the sacred building. The sensitive design solution was to emphasize simplicity and strength.
- Research
- The building has been used as a training site for university and technical college students, engineers, and prefectural and city officials to foster younger generations and pass on traditional techniques, and has been widely covered by the media through several public tours. As a result, it has become possible to sustain the traditional techniques of architecture. The use of local wood contributes to tradition, culture, industry, and the environment, and the shrine has become a local landmark.
- Inspiration
- The design, composed of horizontal and vertical continuous lines, is aesthetically pleasing and unique to Japanese architecture, and is considered an "attractive structural beauty.
An innovative approach that combines traditional Japanese construction methods that use no hardware at all with modern structural analysis and "limit strength calculations" to create buildings that will last for 100 or 200 years, blending old and new technologies. - Project Duration
- The project started in August 2019 in Toyokawa City, Aichi, Japan and finished in December 2021
Location 102 Kamikaizu, Hirao-chou, Toyokawa City, Aichi, Japan, Aichi, - Operation Flow
