藤本壮介在福冈设计的临时性礼堂

藤本壮介建筑设计事务所为日本福冈的大宰府Tenmangu神社设计了一个临时礼堂。这座礼堂矗立在主神社的前面，主神社将在未来三年进行重建。这是这座被指定为重要文化遗产的主神社将进行首次重大修缮，“临时性的礼堂”将代替它来迎接游客。

新建筑的设计理念是绿色屋顶，营造出建筑空间和自然环境之间的完美共生关系。弯曲的屋顶上出现了一片“森林”，消解掉大厅内外的界限，并带有日本著名建筑师的设计签名。建设将于2023年2月开始，礼堂将一直开放到主神社的改造完成。

SOU FUJIMOTO PLANTS TEMPORARY HALL IN FUKUOKA
Sou Fujimoto Architects has designed a temporary hall for Dazaifu Tenmangu Shrine in Fukuoka, Japan. The pavilion will stand in front of the main shrine, which will be reconstructed for the next three years. For the first time in 124 years, the main shrine, which is designated as an important cultural property, will undergo a major renovation, and the ‘temporary hall’ will replace it to welcome visitors.
The new design is defined by a green roof that creates a perfect symbiosis between built space and natural surroundings. A ‘forest’ appears on its bent roof, dissolving the boundary between the hall’s interior and exterior, and bears the design signature of the renowned Japanese architect. Construction will begin in February 2023, and the pavilion is set to be open until the main renovation is complete.

藤本壮介的礼堂将暂时取代主神社

大宰府Tenmangu神社是日本Tenmangu神社的主神社，永久供奉着被尊为学习、文化、艺术和真诚之神的菅原道真（Sugawara no Michizane）之神灵。这座神社不仅在日本各地，甚至在全世界都有人参拜，每年有近1000万朝拜者来参拜。

在大宰府Tenmangu神社，每25年举行一次纪念仪式，这个数字与菅原道真密切相关。据大宰府Tenmangu神社介绍：“在日和九年(2027年)，我们将庆祝菅原道真的1125周年忌日。”

与主神社不同的是，游客可以在不脱鞋的情况下进入由藤本壮介建筑事务所设计的临时性礼堂。此外，还为老年人和儿童设计了坡道。礼堂的尺寸遵循目前主神社相同的尺寸，有着宽敞的空间布局。

SOU FUJIMOTO’S HALL TEMPORARILY REPLACES THE MAIN SHRINE
Dazaifu Tenmangu Shrine is the head shrine of Tenmangu shrines in Japan that permanently enshrines the spirit of Sugawara no Michizane, who is widely revered as the god of learning, culture, art, and sincerity. The shrine is worshiped not only all over Japan but also around the world, and nearly 10 million worshipers visit it annually.
At Dazaifu Tenmangu Shrine, every 25 years, a ceremony is held to commemorate the number 25, which is closely related to Sugawara no Michizane (Tenjin). ‘In the 9th year of Reiwa (2027), we will celebrate the 1125th anniversary of Sugawara no Michizane’s death,’ shares the team at Dazaifu Tenmangu.
Unlike the main shrine, visitors can enter the temporary pavilion — conceived by Sou Fujimoto Architects (see more here) — without taking off their shoes. Furthermore, a slope is provided and designed with consideration for elderly people and children. The size of the funeral hall follows the same dimensions as the current main hall, providing worshipers with a spacious layout.



目前的主神社大约是在430年前由Chikuzen的领主小早川隆景（Takakage Kobayakawa）重建的。这主神社是首次在如此长的时间内重建和修复。“为了将受到保护的传统传承给未来，恢复美丽的外观，我们将使用传统技术修复受损的部分，但我们还将举行以建筑史和历史专家为核心的专家会议。我们将在启动和修复的同时进行调查和研究，并重新评估主神社的历史价值和文化意义。”

The current main shrine was rebuilt approximately 430 years ago by Takakage Kobayakawa, the feudal lord of Chikuzen. This is the first time the main shrine will be rebuilt and repaired for such a long period of time. ‘In order to pass on the traditions that have been protected and handed down to the future and revive the beautiful appearance, we will repair the damaged parts using traditional techniques, but we will also hold an expert meeting centered on architectural history and history experts. We will conduct surveys and research in parallel with the start-up and repairs and re-evaluate the historical value and cultural significance of the main shrine.’

“我们将在熊本车站前建一个‘洞穴’，欢迎大家参观。”尽管它只存在了三年，但我们希望它成为让各方都满意的地方。它与周围的景观融为一体，延续传统并连接未来。”

‘We will build a ‘cave’ in front of Kumamoto Station to welcome everyone to visit. Since it has only been exhibited for three years, we wanted it to be a place that will be pleasing to the Tenjin Sama and all the visitors. It has been designed to blend in with the surrounding landscape, carrying on the tradition and connecting to the future.’
