The Design
About Kitazawa Konsepsyon Peyizaj Rezidansyèl
Kitazawa se yon konsepsyon peyizaj ak espas pataje pou premye etaj yon nouvo rezidans kolektif nan Setagaya-ku, Tokyo. Pwojè a kouvri espas pataje a, jaden an ak zòn pakin nan. Yo melanje tuil twati ki soti nan ansyen kay style Japonè ki te sou sit la ak teraso epi yo aplike yo pa plastraj, konsa yo kenbe teksti orijinal kote a. Yo transfòme sit ki te san sòti a an yon pasaj ant ale yo ki sèvi tou kòm yon wout evakyasyon. Yo replante pyebwa epi yo ajoute yon byotòp louvri ak ban chita pou ti repo ak pou rankont ant rezidan yo ak vwazen yo.

The terrazzo floor material mixed with many roof tiles is a Superior in heat insulation effect retention.
"Affinity with the local environment"
The dead-end site was transformed into a passageway connecting alleys, doubling as an evacuation route, with replanted trees and an open biotope for the community.
"Diverse communications"
The shared space for residents seamlessly blends inside and out, with benches and railings in the biotope for thoughtful breaks and interactions, shaping the community's future.
This project was a ground floor + landscape common area design for an apartment building. The planning and design focused on creating a seamless connection between the interior design and the landscape. - Design Challenge
- In particular, the plastering of terrazzo mixed with roofing tiles installed on the interior and exterior floors, walls, and molding was very difficult because in addition to functionality, workability, and aesthetics, maintenance and cost had to be considered.

- ”Diverse Communications”
A place for a short break where a community is born. Benches and handrails in the biotope are perfect for breaks. You can lean on it and chat with people on the way home from shopping. Put things on it for stretching when running. A resting place in a quiet residential area is where diverse people spend and talk in a variety of ways. The people will weave the future of the community and create a sense of belonging through diverse communication. - Inspiration
- Since this project was to be built in a quiet, upscale residential neighborhood, we were mindful of serving the community, not destroying the landscape, and connecting the local community to the future.
- Project Duration
- Planning for this project began in October 2020, construction began in February 2021, and construction was completed in July 2022 in a quiet residential neighborhood in Setagaya-ku, Tokyo, Japan.
- Operation Flow
- The shared space for residents seamlessly blends inside and out, with benches and railings in the biotope for thoughtful breaks and interactions, shaping the community's future.
