About Nagomi Primary Function: Kituo cha Ustawi
Nagomi ni kituo cha ustawi kilichobuniwa kwa ajili ya wafanyakazi wa kiwanda kilichoko viungani mwa mkoa wa Miyagi, Japani. Jina Nagomi lina maana ya kutuliza akili katika lugha ya Kijapani. Jengo hili la ghorofa mbili linaenea eneo la mita za mraba 1691 na lina mkahawa, kituo cha mazoezi ya viungo, ukumbi wa maonyesho, maeneo ya kupumzika na nafasi za matukio za ndani na nje. Umbo lililopinda na paa la mteremko hulinda njia ya kuingilia dhidi ya upepo wa majira ya baridi na theluji. Mbawa zilizojengwa kwa fremu za mihimili hupa mkahawa nafasi pana iliyo wazi, ambapo mistari ya dari ya mbao imepangwa kwa mtindo usio na mpangilio ili kuunda mazingira ya ndani yenye mwanga na joto.

- Production Technology
- The design of the building is based on the concept of a circular building with an eaves along the approach from the surrounding factory buildings. The trussed structure of both wings makes the cafeteria a large space. The ceiling of the cafeteria was designed to contrast with the planar design of the factory building, and the lines of the wood material were set in a random pattern to create a light and warm space enveloped by the wood material.
- Design Challenge
- In order to realize diverse functions and long flow lines economically, we came up with the idea of a series of simple single-span sections. The roof shape is designed to prevent seasonal winds and snow from the northwest side in winter, the structural plan is designed to realize an open space, and the air conditioning plan provides a comfortable environment even in a large space.
- Research
- In order to determine the shape of the building, we analyzed the seasonal wind direction, snow accumulation, sunshine, etc., and compared several patterns of building orientation, green areas, and pathways to determine the most reasonable layout and shape.
- Inspiration
- The word Nagomi means to ease the mind in Japanese.The shape of the building was boldly modified to accommodate a variety of functions, including a cafeteria, interior and exterior event spaces, a gallery, and relaxation areas that are easily accessible even in winter.The design of this building is based on the concept of the factory's rechargeable battery cells, and is in harmony with the surrounding landscape and nature.
- Project Duration
- The project started in 2019 and finished in 2021 on the suburbs of Miyagi prefecture,JAPAN
- Operation Flow
- The goal was to create a facility that is easy to use and useful for everyone, with a traffic line that is easily accessible even in rough weather, a cafeteria that provides a place for employees to relax and interact, a fitness center to improve health, and a plaza that can accommodate various events.
