这所房子位于东京郊区，周围都是木房子。它的位置是如此的隐蔽，很难找到，除非你生活在附近。周边的环境很安静，有着一种这个地区特有的静谧感，就像一个原始森林。这个项目的业主希望远离社会，但仍然可以以方便的城市生活方式享受他们的退休生活。终于有一天，我碰巧找到一个完美匹配他们需求的房子，但是比较破旧，我建议改造它。这房子看起来和这个地区的其他房子一样旧，有着相似的外观。我认为作为该地区特有的静谧感的一部分，会更适合我的客户，而不是完全重建房子，使它从周围的环境中脱颖而出。

This house is located in a built-up part of the Tokyo outskirts, an area full of wooden houses. Its location is so tucked away that it can be difficult to find unless one actually lives in the neighborhood. The neighboring environment is quiet and contains a sense of anonymity peculiar to this area, which feels like a primeval forest. The client for this project wanted some distance from society, but to still enjoy their retirement living a convenient city lifestyle. One day I happened to find a worn-out home which perfectly matched their stipulations. I suggested renovating it. This house looked as old as the other homes in the area, sharing a similar appearance. I thought being part of the area’s unique anonymity would suit my client better, rather than my completely rebuilding the house and making it stand out from its surroundings.

这个想法使我以一种开放的方式设计房子。我的意图是让在该室内的人依然能感受到他们周围的环境。我特意没有把房子按空间分开。相反，我把它的位置作为一个生活的环境。我试图把这个环境融入到室内环境当中，使窗户（那些不面向其他房屋的窗户）尽可能大，使得对这个社区有清晰的视野。穿过住宅之间的风，也能吹到这个房子。我根据外部因素，限定了入口和窗口。这导致了内部环境显著的变化，所以我将相应的基本生活必需品安排到正确的地方：岛式厨房，可以背对着邻居的墙烹饪，同时可以俯瞰通道；在房子的最大风处部分有一个岛式浴缸；在阴影处一个淋浴房；一个稍微倾斜的楼梯，让人感觉下一个房子的墙的存在；在黑暗地方的存储空间。我灵活地根据场地设计房子，而不是教科书式的生硬地进行设计。实际的生活经验是三维的、比一个平面图更能清晰地表达。

This idea led me to design the house in an open manner. I intended to make someone inside really sense their surroundings wherever they might be in the home. I intentionally did not divide the house up by space. Instead, I treated its location as a living environment. I sought to integrate this environment with its built-up surroundings by making the windows (the ones which don’t face other houses’ windows) as large as possible, so that one has a sweeping view of the neighborhood. The wind that passes between the neighboring houses will also be able to blow through this home. I defined the entrance and windows according to external factors. This resulted in significant changes to the in-house environment, so I arranged the basic living essentials to their right places accordingly: an island kitchen where one can cook with their back against the neighboring house's wall, while overlooking an alleyway; an island bathtub in the windiest section of the house; a shower booth in a shadowy area; a gently sloped stairway that makes one sense the existence of the next house’s wall; and storage spaces in dark areas. I designed the house dynamically, not methodologically. The actual living experience is three-dimensional and more fluid than what a ground plan can describe.

在添加新材料时，我保证它会与已经存在的元素和谐地共存。通过这种方式，人们通过房子的结构和历史的积累，可以看到改造的历史。例如，我在现有的木框架增加了钢筋梁，在房子外表加了窗框，以暴露旧的支柱。

When adding new material, I ensured that it would coexist with what had already been there. This way, one can understand the reconstructed house by seeing the accumulation of its structure and history. For example, I added reinforced beams to the existing wooden frames, and window frames to the exterior of the house in order to expose old pillars.

直到现在，我们计划住在城市，过着我们梦寐以求的生活：理想的空间、庭院、城市的外观等等。但是，这一项目追求的是在城市中更解放自由的生活环境。全身心地投入到漫无目的建筑环境，把他们看作一个原始森林，触发你真实的身体感受——就像在夏日的时候，你待在位于野生自然环境的小屋中静静享受。

Until now, when we made plans to live in cities, we lived our lives by dreaming up fantasies: the ideal space, courtyards, the appearance of the city, etc. However, this project strives for a more liberated living environment in a city. Devote yourself to the aimlessly built-up surroundings, recognize them as being like a primeval forest, and spark your real body senses - just like what happens when you spend some summer days in a cottage situated in wild nature.
