About Saimyo Temple Trúarleg bygging

Bók texti: Saimyo hofið er trúarleg bygging staðsett á lóð hofs í Kurashiki-borg, Okayama-héraði í Japan. Hönnunin leggur áherslu á lárétt línur. Tvö þök af mismunandi hæð gefa byggingunni tilfinningu fyrir hæð og rúmmáli. Þak með mildum halla heldur byggingunni lægri en aðalhofinu. Þakið er gert úr galvaniseruðu stáli í stað hefðbundinna flísa. Djúp þakskegg skýla innra rýminu og verja veggina fyrir regni. Rúmgott gluggaklætt herbergi býður upp á opið útsýni og kyrrlátan stað fyrir bænir og hugleiðslu.

Design Challenge
The client wanted the architecture to be unobstructed by buildings. The building was to be constructed a little lower than the main temple. A gently sloping roof was adopted to keep the height low.
Research
One of the features of this temple's design is its deep eaves. In traditional Japanese architecture these eaves are of great importance. It is It has not only a functional meaning such as adjusting solar radiation according to the season or protecting the exterior walls in rainy areas but also a psychological meaning such as the comfort of being under the eaves. For this reason we designed the space with wide eaves so that visitors can relax.
Inspiration
When I first visited this place I was amazed by the stunning view and refreshing breeze. I had an idea of building a spacious room enclosed in glass where one could enjoy the beautiful surroundings without compromising on comfort. Additionally I thought of creating a peaceful space for prayer and meditation.
