The recognition forms part of the 2022 - 2023 A' Design Award & Competition and was reached through blind peer review by an international grand jury panel of established academics, design professionals and press members, who assessed anonymized entries against predetermined criteria.

What the Golden A' Design Award Means

The Gold A' Design Award is granted to designs that demonstrate a high level of innovation and a significant impact on their intended audience. Recognized as a major achievement by the A' Design Awards, these designs are characterized by their visionary approach and the exceptional skill of their creators. Winners of the Gold A' Design Award are noted for their ability to push the envelope in art, science, design, and technology, delivering solutions that not only meet but exceed expectations. These designs serve as benchmarks for excellence, encouraging further innovation and inspiring future generations of designers.

Regarding House in Yamate Residential House

They studied the angles of the summer and winter sunrises entering the site, and designed a floor plan that captures the sunrise throughout the year. The walls were glazed to create a sunrise-filled living space. Then, to protect the living space from the summer sun and rain, they planned an independent large roof. The roof is not an enclosed space, but an open space where wind and consciousness can pass through. They hope that with the construction of this building, the residents will feel more light and wind than ever before, and that their daily life will be better.

About Tatsuhiro Nishimoto

After graduating from high school, he became a professional soccer player in Japan at the age of 18, but he became interested in architecture halfway through and studied architecture at a vocational school. He then studied architectural design at various companies and opened an architectural design office in his hometown. Running an architectural firm in the countryside was tough, and he thought about giving up many times, but a stay at the Jetwing Lighthouse in Sri Lanka, which he visited for his studies, gave him courage again. The architecture was designed by Sri Lankan architect Geoffrey Bawa. He was inspired by this space and is still working hard to design better spaces.

Award Record
