宫代町的房子,日本

House in Miyashiro,Japan

项目地段位处停车场旁边,绝对称不上是最理想的居住环境,如何美化景观同时保留开放空间成为建筑师的首要任务。西面加建的白木墙一直延伸到前园,加入六扇窗口既能掩盖停车场碍眼的景观,又不至于把室内与室外空间完全隔绝。露天前园的碎石园种植了几株林木,为四周冰冷的石屎及沥清路面加入一丝绿化,成为与邻居聚旧聊天的好地方。

With three sides surrounded by a carpark, the challenge for this project is obvious： covering the eyesore while maintaining a certain degree of openness. The west elevation does exactly that. The white wooden wall with six openings beautifies the internal living space, yet at the same time, gives a sense of publicness on the boundary between the parking lot and the proposed site. The front yard, enclosed by the extension of the elevation, becomes a public space for neighbours to gather.
