石头花园住宅，日本 / EASTERN design office

我们希望营造一种大胆的氛围，一种如同天空、海洋、海滩和沙漠等巨大的”虚无”的氛围。 在寻常的住宅区角落，这栋建筑的存在仿佛来自”天外世界”。

We intended to create a bold atmosphere that great ‘emptiness’ such as sky, ocean, beach and desert can bring about. In ordinary residential quarters, the architecture exists as if it comes from ‘the other world’.

这栋房子就像陵墓一样，具有非凡的力量。两堵墙；形状独特的窗户；悬浮的体量。将注意力集中在上述三个建筑元素上时，就能感受到这座建筑表现出的强烈震撼力。 极简的建筑与花园中的巨石、黎明和日落时分的蓝色天空及皓月相映成趣。 这种简约让人联想到被遗忘的平静。

This house has extraordinary power like mausoleums can have. Two walls. A window with characteristic shape. Cantilevered volume. The strong expression of this architecture is brought by focusing attention on above three architectural elements. This simplified architecture is in pairs with huge stones in the garden, with the blue sky at dawn and sunset and with white moon. This simplicity reminds of the repose that one has forgotten.

墙上寥寥几个开口，整体看起来比实际47米的长度更长。 弧形的墙面和铺装路面渐增的高度变化制造了这种视觉效果。只有位于墙壁上方的建筑立面上的一个开口是”塔”的形状。 这是对现实世界的怀旧（追忆）。

The wall, a few openings are on it, looks longer than its actual length- 47 meter. Curved wall and incremental change of pavement level give this visual effect. Only one opening on the facade located above the wall is in the shape of ‘Tower’. This is solitary a nostalgia to (recollection of) the real world.

哪种场景的表现力更强？是纯粹的自然景观，还是自然与人工元素的结合？ 我们希望通过加入我们的作品来强化自然景观。 建筑的原始感的外形与我们在大自然中发现的一望无际的地平线、跨越山脊的月亮拥有同样的力量。

Which scene can give stronger expression, pure natural landscape or combination of nature and artificial element? We want to make the natural landscape stronger by adding our work. Primitive shape of this architecture has same kind of strength that we can find in the nature – endless horizon, the moon crossing ridge of mountain.

我们认为最适合混凝土的材料是石头。 这座建筑就是这两种厚重、不透明的材料的结合。花园以原始的方式将石头和墙结合在一起。 花园墙壁上有两个方形开口，给人带来不真实的感觉。 园内有两堵5米高的长墙和一堆巨石。场地位于岩石地面上。挖掘时从地面上浮现出了很多直径2至6米的巨石。 我们将它们堆放在岩石花园中。

We think most suitable material to concrete is stone. This architecture is combination of those two heavy and opaque materials. The garden is in combination of stone and wall in primitive manner. Two square shaped openings on the wall in the garden bring about unreal scene. There are two of long and high walls in height of 5 meter, and a heap of huge stones. The site is on the rock ground. Upon excavation, tons of huge rocks, in 2 to 6 meter diameter, appeared from the ground. We piled up them in heaps in the rock garden.

房子坐落在墙的尽头，入口位于两堵墙之间。 居住空间的楼板架在墙壁上。在房屋入口处有一个小池塘。 水面反射的光线舞动在白色墙体之上，而白墙就像一艘船的船身，随着阳光变化，亮度也随之起伏变化。

The house located at the end of the wall. Entry is given between two walls. Floor plate for living space is located on the wall. At the entry to the house, there a pond is locates. Reflected light by the water dances on the white wall. Like a body of ship, the white wall changes its brightness according to sunlight.

天空、岩石、墙壁和星空组合成空旷的场景。 我们沉迷于这样的简洁。

The scene of emptiness clipped out by sky, rocks, walls and starry sky. We are carried away by such simplicity.
