Ko TCNK he whare whakaatu waka me te karāhe waka kei te takiwā o Niigata, Hapani. Ko te whare e tū ana i te tomokanga o tētahi rohe whakawhanake hou, ā, he mea whakaaro hei tohu whenua rongonui. Ka whakakotahi a TCNK i tētahi whare whakaatu karāhe ki ngā kokoraho e rua kei runga ake, e āhua rewa ana ki runga ake i te whenua. Nā tētahi hanganga tāweko e rima mita te roa me tētahi hanganga tārewa i āhua noho ai ngā kokoraho ki runga i te raina pou kotahi. Ko te hoahoa whakamutunga i tīpakohia mai i te neke atu i te tekau tono i whakaritea whai muri i tētahi rangahau mō te wāhi. I tīmata te hanga i te marama o Whiringa-ā-rangi 2006, ā, i oti i te marama o Whiringa-ā-nuku 2009.

- Unique Properties
- The location of this project is at the entrance of the new development area. Therefore, we realized a combination of a glass showroom and two floating volumes as a symbol.
To create the image of a floating volume, there is a 5 meter cantilever and suspension structure that makes it appear that the volume is supported by only one-lined columns. - Inspiration
- I investigated the site and found various inspirations.
An image that seems to spring from the ground.
Or an image that floats in the air.
After considering more than 10 proposals, this proposal was adopted, which resulted in a volume floating in the air. - Project Duration
- The project started in November 2006 and finished the construction in October 2009.
The site is located in Niigata prefecture, Japan - Team Members
