A.P.L.：YKK株式会社是一家日本的生产拉链与建材的大型制造商。业主希望将黑部园区正门与YKK50总部大楼所在的区域向市民和来访者开放。基于此，便委托我们制定了该区域的总体规划。我们的提案是将正门向园区内移动，在曾经被工厂覆盖的土地，利用该区域潜在的植被来孕育森林，继而带来新的气象，利用这片土地而向外界阐释该企业理念。

A.P.L.：The YKK group, which manufactures and sells slide fasteners and architectural components, decided to open up the area where their headquarters at the YKK 50 Building and the Kurobe campus main gate are located to residents and visitors. We were commissioned to create a master plan for this area. Our proposal was to push the main gate back deep into the campus and breathe new life into this tract of land, which used to be filled with factory sheds, by creating a forest consisting of the local vegetation, thereby using this area to represent the company’s philosophy.

作为黑部川冲积扇的一部分，此处的地下水位较高，如果不采取任何措施，这片土地上只有低矮的苗木能够存活。因此，我们与studio on-site景观公司合作，致力于改善当地的林木多样性，与此同时，将旧的厂房作为园区的新节点加以改造，作为企业展览馆（丸屋根展示場），以幼叶与深海生物为主题设计街灯与导视牌，作为控制绿色空间的小节点。

We collaborated with studio on-site, a landscape firm, to foster a forest from baby trees on the alluvial fan shaped by the Kurobe River, where the high underground water level could reduce vegetation variety without any improvement measures. At the same time, we redesigned an old factory shed into a company museum as a new architectural focus in this park, and used seed leaf and deep-sea creature inspired motifs for the exterior lighting design. Together with the signage, these small clues help articulate the vast, green land.
