差異の建築に向けて
建ものは大地に固定されますが、地球は常に一定のサイクルで動いています。それが日常生活に季節や多彩な変化、つまり「時間的な差異」を運び、人の成長をはぐくみます。そのような日々のリズムに耳を傾けるならば、建築にとって、用途が限定された部屋よりは、人と光と風の動きを手がかりに、多様な体験が生まれる多様な居場所と、それらをたばねる柔軟なシナリオが、より重要になるでしょう。建築は長い歳月慣れ親しむことで深みを増すような「時間体験」です。固定的な器としての建ものにとらわれず、人の成長や活動の変化を念頭に、日々の生活が発見につながるような、「差異の建築」を目指しています。
TOWARD DIFFERENTIAL ARCHITECTURE
The earth constantly moves in a fixed cycle, although a building never moves once it is settled on it. This cycle brings seasons and various changes to our daily lives, which we call "temporal difference," and it helps us grow. If we pay attention to these daily rhythms, we will find that it is more important to create different places that evoke various experiences and a flexible scenario to manipulate them, rather than rooms that are limited to specific functions. Architecture depends on a kind of "time experience" that can expand its depth as we get used to it over a long period of time. What we propose is not a building as a predetermined container that ignores our future progress and changes in activities, but "Differential Architecture" that can lead our daily lives to a continuity of discoveries.
