About Kitazawa Muundo wa Mandhari ya Makazi
Kitazawa ni muundo wa mandhari na nafasi ya pamoja kwa ajili ya ghorofa ya chini ya jengo jipya la makazi ya pamoja huko Setagaya-ku, Tokyo. Mradi huu unahusisha nafasi ya pamoja, bustani, na eneo la kuegesha magari. Vigae vya paa kutoka kwa nyumba ya zamani ya kimtindo wa Kijapani iliyokuwepo eneoni vimechanganywa na terrazzo na kutumika kwa njia ya kupaka, hivyo kuhifadhi umbile la asili la mahali hapo. Eneo lililokuwa halina njia ya kutokea lilibadilishwa kuwa njia ya kupita kati ya vichochoro ambayo pia hutumika kama njia ya kukimbilia wakati wa dharura. Miti ilipandwa upya na eneo la wazi la ikolojia yenye viti vya kukalia liliongezwa kwa ajili ya mapumziko mafupi na kwa mikutano kati ya wakazi na majirani.

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

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.
