About House in Yamate 住宅

Nandinika ny zoron'ny fiposahan'ny fahavaratra sy ny ririnina miditra amin'ilay toerana izy ireo, ary nanamboatra drafitra momba ny gorodona izay maka ny fiposahan'ny masoandro mandritra ny taona. Nopetahana glasy ny rindrina mba hamoronana toeram-ponenana feno masoandro. Avy eo, mba hiarovana ny trano fonenana amin'ny masoandro amin'ny fahavaratra sy ny orana, dia nanomana tafo lehibe tsy miankina izy ireo. Ny tafo dia tsy toerana voahidy, fa toerana malalaka ahafahan'ny rivotra sy ny fahatsiarovan-tena mandalo. Manantena izy ireo fa amin’ny fananganana ity trano ity dia hahatsapa hazavana sy rivotra bebe kokoa noho ny teo aloha ny mponina, ary hihatsara ny fiainany andavanandro.

Unique Properties: The angle of the sunrise at the summer and winter solstices entering the site was investigated, and a floor plan was designed to allow the sunrise to enter the building, with glass walls. Then, in order to protect the living space from the summer sun and rain, an independent large roof was planned. By creating an independent roof, we thought that the space would not be closed, but would be an open space where wind and consciousness could pass through.
Dimensions & Packaging: To give the appearance of a large roof supported by four pillars, H-shaped steel beams (250 x 250) were used for the beams, which were hidden inside the roof. In addition, to avoid making the columns too thick, circular steel columns of 267.4 x 12.7 (STK400) were used. In this way, the relationship between the stable roof and the independent house was stabilized.

Production Technology: A new RC digging garage was built at the location facing the road on the east side. The frame of the garage is also the foundation of the steel-frame structure. The residential portion is a wooden structure, completely separated from the steel structure. By completely separating the two structures, the residential portion was made independent, and was designed to take advantage of the different characteristics of each.
Inspiration: The site was an old development subdivision with a lowered east side. It was surrounded by houses. The height of the site is one level higher than the houses on the east side, and we wanted to create a plan that would allow the sunrise to enter the living space when standing on the site. When I visited Varanasi in India when I was a student, I saw people praying for the sunrise by scooping water from the Ganges River with both hands. I wanted to create a living space filled with such light.
Project Duration: The project started in Iwakuni in June 2018 and finished in December 2021
