莲山居
LOVE ARCHITECTURE

设计特色:      

项目 – 在东京这座拥挤的都市中,浅利幸男和他的LOVE ARCHITECTURE设计团队营造了一处独一无二的城市避世之所—"莲山居"。这处项目位于一条小路的尽头,原先被周边建筑环绕,给人以围堵压抑的感受。但浅利巧妙的设计将这一困境化为契机,以日式传统茶室和园林为灵感,创造出一处令人身心沉浸的建筑体验。呈U字形环抱地块边界的建筑,遮蔽了外部城市景观的侵扰,同时在内部塑造出蜿蜒曲折的通路与庭院空间。设计团队精心营造了内外视野的模糊,令人无法区分室内外的界限。从中庭眺望,错落有致的山墙屋顶犹如连绵山峦;而房间内,窗景如同茶室中精心构筑的借景园林。材料的运用更加深化了这种诗意体验,炭化杉木的外墙立面营造出夕照中的层峦叠嶂;而泥墙、障子屏风、竹制竖框和日本纸灯等内部设计元素,则将人们带入传统茶室的氛围中。与此同时,这种浪漫设计手法亦贯彻满足采光、隐私及东京当地建筑规范等功能需求。在"莲山居"中,设计师成功塑造了一处真正的"市中山居",一处现象学意义上的都市绿洲,尽管身处喧嚣的城市环境中也能收放自如,让住户得以切身体会日式建筑哲学与美感的魅力。

 

团队 – 由日本建筑师浅利幸男于2001年创立的LOVE ARCHITECTURE是一家坐落东京、以诗意重释日本传统建筑理念和巧妙的场址回应设计著称的先锋建筑设计工作室。在浅利的引领下,该设计团队屡获殊荣,包括多次赢得日本建筑学会优秀作品奖,获奖项目有2019年的八圣殿、2018年的持宝院礼拝堂及墓园、2017年的中野薫木荘住宅等。其设计作品巧妙融合了丰富的文化底蕴与当代需求,住宅系列作品如2013年获奖的小金井之家等,都灵活应对了场址局限,同时重新唤起了日式茶室园林的高雅静谧气质;而八圣殿等宗教建筑设计作品则彰显出该团队对于神圣几何学和象征性空间的深邃领悟与表达。凭借由浅利率领的卓越设计团队,LOVE ARCHITECTURE持续推陈出新,塑造出重塑建筑与自然环境交汇的现象学体验。这种前卫创新的设计手法,巩固了该设计工作室作为目前日本最具影响力和备受关注的设计团队之一的声誉地位。 Feature:

Project - In a dense Tokyo neighborhood, architect YUKIO ASARI of Love Architecture has carved out a remarkable urban refuge with "Renzankyo - Urban Mountain Residence." Situated at the end of a cul-de-sac and hemmed in by neighboring buildings, the site initially felt enclosed and oppressive. However, Asari's ingenious design transforms this challenging plot into an immersive architectural experience inspired by traditional Japanese tea houses and gardens.

 

The U-shaped building hugs the boundaries, shielding residents from the surrounding urban fabric while creating an intricate procession of interior pathways and exterior spaces. Asari masterfully plays with perspectives, blurring the lines between inside and out. From the central courtyard, the staggered gabled roofs evoke a serene mountain landscape, while rooms offer framed views reminiscent of meticulously composed tea garden scenery.

 

Material choices further enhance the poetic vision. Charred cedar cladding conjures images of dusk-lit peaks, while interior details like mud walls, shoji screens, and bamboo mullions transport one into a traditional tea room aesthetic. Yet this romantic concept deftly merges with functional solutions tailored to daylight, privacy, and Tokyo's stringent building codes.

 

With "Renzankyo," Asari has crafted an extraordinary "urban mountain residence" - a phenomenological oasis that allows inhabitants to viscerally experience the beauty of traditional Japanese design principles amidst the dense city fabric.

 

Design Team - Established in 2001 by principal architect YUKIO ASARI, Love Architecture is a pioneering Tokyo-based firm renowned for its poetic reinterpretations of traditional Japanese architectural concepts and masterful contextual design solutions. Under Asari's visionary leadership, the practice has garnered numerous accolades, including multiple Japan Institute of Architects (JIA) Excellence Awards for projects like the Yaseiden Temple (2019), Jimonji-in Chapel and Cemetery (2018), and Nakano Kunmokkusō residence (2017).

 

Love Architecture's oeuvre seamlessly amalgamates rich cultural heritage with contemporary needs. Their residential works, such as the award-winning Koganei House (2013) and Akazutsumi Housing Development (2017), deftly respond to site constraints while evoking the sublime serenity of traditional tea houses and gardens. Spiritual architecture like the Ryūzen-ji Yaseiden Temple (2016) exemplifies their profound understanding of sacred geometries and symbolic spaces.

 

With an exceptional design team headed by Asari, a graduate of Musashino Art University, Love Architecture continues to push boundaries, crafting phenomenological experiences that redefine the intersection of the built and natural environments. Their innovative approach has cemented the firm's reputation as one of Japan's most influential and celebrated practices.
