軒の家（箱根、2009年）
Eaves House, Hakone, 2009
| Eaves House |
| 箱根の保養地に建つ別荘。敷地は自然公園法の特別地域に該当し、厳しい緑被率と屋根勾配の制限がある。そこで、制限いっぱいにつくった寄棟屋根で敷地を覆い、その軒下に、山の気候に左右されない外部空間をつくりだした。軒は、雨傘であり、日傘であり、南からの太陽光を運ぶレフ板であり、富士山を切り出すフレームでもある。構造上有効な壁面を確保するために壁は雁行させており、この軒との相互作用で、内部でも外部でもない中間的な領域ができた。 |
| A vacation home built in the resort area of Hakone. The site is located in the special area regulated under the Natural Parks Law, and has strict regulations on the ratio of green coverage and roof pitch. We built a hipped roof that covered the sight within the maximum regulation allowed, and created an exterior space under the eaves that wouldn’t be affected by the weather in the mountains. The eaves acted as an umbrella, a parasol, a reflex board that carried the sunlight from the South, and also as a frame of the beautiful view of Mount Fujiyama. By acquiring enough wall quantity with the irregularity of the wall surfaces, and the eaves, we have succeeded in creating a new layer that is completely separate from the outside. |
