Blank Garden 花园住宅丨日本东京丨UNEMORI ARCHITECTS

这座房子位于东京，为一对夫妇和他们的孩子设计建造。由于场地靠近河流，存在洪水风险，业主希望房屋能应对这样的紧急情况。此外，他们还希望室内空间明亮，能够欣赏绿意景色，并具备灵活的平面布局，以适应未来生活方式的变化，例如家庭办公或其他需求。

This house is built in Tokyo for a couple and a child. The site is situated within an area with the risk of flooding from the river running nearby, so the clients requested the house to be prepared for such an emergency. They also wished to have bright interior spaces with a view to greenery and a flexible floor plan to accommodate furniture layout changes for needs such as working from home and future changes in lifestyle.

建筑主体被抬高至地面约4米的高度（高于预测的洪水水位）。这一设计使得建筑的一层成为一个覆盖整个场地的大型花园，种植了多种大小不一的植物。花园通过两个交错的多层空间与二层和三层相连。围绕建筑的网状幕帘可以关闭，将花园变成类似室内的空间。这种设计模糊了室内与室外的界限，既营造出私密、植被丰富的花园和屋檐下的廊道氛围，又带有城市草坪般的“公共”气息。

The volume of the building is elevated about four meters above ground level (i.e. above the expected flood level). This allows the first level of the building to be used as a large garden that fills the entire site, where plants of various sizes are planted. The garden is sectionally linked with the second and third-floor levels with two staggered multi-story spaces. It can also be transformed into an interior-like space by closing the mesh curtains around the building. This gives the space a sense of ambiguity–evoking a private, richly vegetated garden and a verandah space under the eaves while having a “public” air of an urban grass field.

房子采用了简约轻盈的钢框架结构，并通过支撑杆稳定。建筑主体由8根截面为100mm x 100mm的细柱支撑，楼层则通过屋顶梁悬挂，从而无需地面支柱支撑。这种设计使地面空间得以完全开放，通过简单的基础和桩基，为景观设计提供了极大的灵活性，同时利用场地起伏的地势，使空间可以随着时间逐渐演变。

This house has a simple, lightweight steel frame structure with bracing. The building is lifted by eight slender columns of 100 mm x 100 mm, while the floor planes on the two floor levels are suspended from roof beams to eliminate the need to support them by columns from the ground. The ground is widely open by using simple footings and piles to create a flexible exterior space, ready for landscaping and to be transformed over time by utilizing the gradually undulating ground of the site.

建筑的上部设有多种尺寸的大窗户，这些窗户通过逐级递进的楼梯连接，使人们可以从不同高度欣赏窗外的绿色植物和天空。通过这一设计，居住者能够随时感受到自然与建筑的交融。房子整体追求简约而宁静的氛围，让每位家庭成员都能根据季节和气候选择适合自己的居住空间。建筑旨在实现人与自然的和谐共生，同时提供灵活、舒适的居住体验，为一家人创造了一个温馨的家园。

Large windows of various sizes are provided on the upper part of the building. They are connected with gradual stairs, allowing one to feel the greenery under the building and the sky above the windows from various height levels. We strived to produce a simple yet calm atmosphere for this house, allowing each family member to choose their place according to the season and climate conditions.
