sorte

かつて小さな戸建ての木造住宅が在った敷地に建てられた地下１階、地上４階の５層５戸の集合住宅。外観は用途、階数、戸数、規模などが判らないように構成されている。用途のイメージを伴わないひとつのオブジェクトとして建物を認識させることで、都市の中での敷地の役割を変えないことを目指している。このような都市の立体長屋は高密度な都心の住宅地において建築によって生活の質を上げる一つの方法になると考えている。

"Rebuilding from one to one"
Sorte has been built in what was once a old timber house. It has a good influence for the surrounding by making the the outside approach space of sharing. Because the approach of five households the floor concentrates, it becomes a three-dimensional composition of the vertical direction of each unit. I thought that a three-dimensional composition become affluent space in the city. The area and the plan of all units are different. Which unit which part to the building has been stored is not understood from the outside, high privacy is secured. This is a result of considering that it is on the site where the detached house in the one-storied house has built originally. If the building can be recognized as one target, it is not subdivision from 1 unit to 5 units, and it becomes rebuilding in one object one object. And, the role of the site in the city in the building doesn't change. I think that such a three-dimensional house of terrace style become one method of raising the quality of living by construction in a high density residential quarter in the center of a city.
