unou小住宅，日本 / Katsutoshi Sasaki + Associates

这所小住宅南北两侧是成排的居住区，东西侧则有良好的视野。建筑师利用这个方向的视野，在东侧做出一个瘦高的框架，西侧做出一个水平的框架，房间的空间就是这两个框架的过渡空间。形成一个有纵向到横向的大房间，反之亦然。建筑师认为家庭就应该是一个大家相互感知但是不干扰的“大房间”，借由东西两侧不同的框架发展处具有深度和密度的空间。同时建筑师在室内放置了一些木框，这些木框充当着窗口或者门框的作用，他们也可以限定空间，定义边界，创造出温和且具有包容力的空间。

■ site As the surrounding of a site, a residence stands in a row in the north-and-south side, and the east-and-west side is a place where a comparatively good field of view.

■ frame (outside) For this site which has good view, we put two “frames” One is vertical frame at east. The other is horizontal frame at west. The space consists of connecting the two frames. It’s a space horizontally opened while reducing height gradually and a space vertically opened while reducing a plan gradually. The “one room” is expanding vertically and horizontally.

■one room I have an idea that the residence should be a one room. However, the monotonous one room which can see the whole feels in many cases that there are few choices of an air and a life. So we have made “one room” which can connect family without seeing directly. This time, We proposed preparing “the boundary of air” connecting good fields of view in the east-and-west and gaining depth and density to the space.

■ frame(inside) Concretely, we use wooden frame which use auxiliary as window or door frame. We think wooden frame itself takes a part of specifying space boundary. It is distinguished as somewhere else at the same time the space before and behind that is connected because there is a wooden frame. It is constituted as space with moderate tolerance.
