A house for a four-person family who enjoys gardening and the outdoors. The site is located on the outskirts of Kofu City, Yamanashi Prefecture, where is located new houses and apartment buildings nearby. Since the site was surrounded by houses and apartments, creating a somewhat enclosed atmosphere, a polycarbonate room was installed to provide privacy and allow the residents to enjoy their hobbies without hesitation. The room made of polycarbonate is named the “Inner Garden”. As for the zoning, I divided the whole building into three volumes. One is the “Inner Garden”. Those volumes are placed to slide for making some corners to be family spaces.

With this narrow network of alleys, the site connects the northern and southern districts of Sanlitun, foresting “wildness” interwoven with meticulously crafted commercial forms here.

3D-printed, earthquake-proof building completed in Tokyo: 3dpod. Obayashi, one of the largest general contractors in Japan, founded in 1892, has completed “3dpod”, the first 3D-printed and earthquake-proof building in the country to receive ministerial certification and a building permit. The demonstration facility, open to the public, was built to evaluate the durability, structural, and environmental performance of 3d-printing, and to foster further its technological development. Architectural 3D printing is particularly challenging in earthquake-prone Japan, and, due to building regulation restrictions, it has so far been employed only in civil engineering and non-habitable, small structures. The main goal of the project was to meet the strict local requirements without relying on conventional reinforcement.

It is not about displaying but inviting in, going away from simple contemplation to suggest participation and interactions. The essence of sound and music, hearing, can be brought in much deeper ways. Away from the conventional exhibition spaces, classrooms, or event halls, we chose to let architecture cradle the visitors along their way. With no clear path, pedestrians meander around the museum, as they would do around the park, invading the space like a continuous flow whose intensity varies along with the days, just as sound permeates space, bouncing around surfaces, running along the walls.
