「庇により豊かさを得る」
愛知県岡崎市における木造の2世帯住宅の計画。
大きな要望のひとつとして屋根のある3台分の駐車場の確保が望まれた。駐車がしやすいという条件付きだ。敷地は前面道路が狭く車の切り返しが難しく、道路は車同士がすれ違うのも困難な状況である。そこで、ここでは限られた敷地の中で建物をなるべく敷地の奥に配置して、柱のない大きな庇をかけることとした。こうすることで、大きな屋根付きの駐車場となりながら、柱がないため車が自由に行き交うことが可能となり駐車の際のストレスが少なくなった。前面道路も容易に車がすれ違える道路を提供できるようになったため、
また、屋根のあるエントランスアプローチも兼ねながら庭としての要素も含み、近隣の方々とのコミュニケーションの場にもなった。結果として複数の用途が混じりあい、相乗効果で豊かな場所となっている。

“Gaining Abundance Through Canopies”
A plan for a wooden two-family home in Okazaki City, Aichi Prefecture.
One major request was to secure a covered parking space for three cars, with the condition that it be easy to park. The site's front road is narrow, making vehicle maneuvering difficult, and the road itself is barely wide enough for cars to pass each other. Therefore, within the limited site area, the building was positioned as far back as possible to create space for a large, column-free canopy. This approach resulted in a large covered parking area. The absence of columns allows cars to move freely, significantly reducing parking stress. It also created a front road wide enough for cars to pass easily, contributing positively to the surrounding environment.
Additionally, the roofed entrance approach also incorporates elements of a garden, becoming a place for communication with neighbors. The result is a space where multiple uses blend together, creating a rich environment through synergy.
The interior space was designed to incorporate the client's preferences regarding the layout. Given the densely built-up area, it achieves a balance between being enclosed yet allowing gentle natural light, creating a somewhat subdued impression. The stairwell between the parents' household on the first floor and the children's household on the second floor acts as a light passageway, allowing light from the skylight to cascade vertically. This serves as a light source while also allowing visual connection between the two levels, enabling them to sense each other's presence. The interior features a beige base tone, extensively using solid ash wood and incorporating shoji screens, creating an interior that also evokes Japanese elements.
