Koshino House

LIGHT & SHADOW

BY Tadao Ando

“The house, by Tadao Ando for the designer Koshin, is a veritable maze of lights and shadows. Like Barragan, the architect seeks to reconcile the tenets of international modernism with tradition and landscape, in this case, Japanese. So, The House Koshin is an example of contemporary architecture built in two parallel wings that barely interrupt the landscape.

STRATEGIES

Plan - Section

Rotated 45° degrees

Opening

CONCEPT : The Dance of Light Tadao Ando uses the understanding and manipulation of natural light , physical manifestation of the passage of time. Natural light signals the times of the day, providing different qualities of light as the sun penetrates the atmosphere at different angles. Natural light has a profound ability to convey built environment, a remarkable immediacy of 'place' and 'time'. Tadao Ando have conveyed this phenomenon so successfully have drawn from antiquity, designing simple forms with calculated approaches to capturing, manipulating, and displaying natural light.

ANALYSIS Movement of sun change position of light and shadow within a space.

Signaling the passage of time and place.

Subtraction of Form [Light tunnel]

Tadao Ando’s design for the Koshino House features two parallel concrete rectangular confines. The forms are partially buried into the sloping ground of a national park and become a compositional addition to the landscape. Placed carefully as to not disrupt the pre-existing trees on the site, the structure responds to the adjacent ecosystem while the concrete forms address a more general nature through a playful manipulation of light.

Diffuse light is scattered, causing it to fall on the crop from all sides. The light is evenly distributed, leaving no sharp shadows.

Living Room- Thin horizontal slit cut through at the ceiling allowing sunlight to penetrate causing a timeeffect to express fear of losing by creating the effect of light and shadow varies with the sun movement.

Living Room– Concrete slab with corrugated surfaces, illustrate dynamic and everchanging by creating wave-like structure that turns the material into a three-dimensional and change with the light's varying angles and intensities.

Natural faint light can be seen from far, conversely light loses its intensity as it moves further from light source creating visual depth and uncertain distance.

Contrasting of light and shadow express the total opposite of both enhance the experience of transformation over time by the dynamic and variable characteristics of sunlight.

House N

SCALE & PROPORTION

BY SOU FUJIMOTO

SCALE

A tidy package with a porous wrapping, N House is a set of three nesting boxes that span the scales of city and domicile. The architecture is recognized as one of the symbolic landmark works as it sits at the center of Nishikimachi residential area dominated by two-storey pitched-roof timber detached homes in Oita City.

PLAN - SECTION

EXTERIOR Three progressive sized boxes nested inside one another, each of their proportion differs in accordance to the purpose of spaces.

CONCEPT : Disguise between Inside & Outside environment As Sou Fujimoto describes: “A distinct boundary is nowhere to be found, except for a gradual change in the domain. On e might say that an ideal architecture is an outdoor space that feels like the indoors and an indoor space that feels like the outdoors. In a nested structure, the inside is invariably the outside, and vice versa. My intention was to make an architecture that is not about space nor about form, but simply about expressing the riches of what are `between` houses and streets.”

VARIATING OPENINGS Differently scaled rectangular cuts are featured on the three nested boxes that delineate the space. These openings of varying sizes provide different amount of interaction for the users within the building with the pedestrians.

DESIGN : Box-in-Box-in-Box House N is comprised of three shells of progressive size nested inside one another, much like a hybrid of boxes. The outermost box covers the entire premises, creating a covered, semi-indoor garden. Second box encloses a limited space inside the covered outdoor space. Third box creates a smaller interior space where the users build their life inside this gradation of domain.

PROPORTION

DEPTH TO SCALE

CIRCULATION

The number of openings per envelope varies, yet the ratio of enclosure to exposure looks the same on every roof or wall surface.

Temporal A BEAUTIFUL VIEW IS FLEETING 好景不常

Temporal From the day of our birth, we are guided by our parents under good circumstance. Soon after, we are capable to pursuit our own dreams and lives.

Without realising, we are being ingulf into a fast-paced world, where we tend to neglect small details or moments that matters. Frankly, we have taken things for granted and not pause for a moment to look back and appreciate. “Temporal” uses interaction between light and architecture where the temporal experience is realized, a remarkable immediacy of 'place' and 'time.

The beginning phase of life started off well lit up by a good amount of light, smooth texture and the guidance by light and shadow representing the moment when we assume life goes the way we have always known. Gradually, lights begun to fade into darkness and pathway begun to narrow down into a smaller passage leading us down to a sunken space of isolation filled with doubt and challenges, where footsteps echo. A rather thin stream of light changes direction according to the rotation of sun creating a sense of temporal. Also, reflecting the rough texture stained on the wall and uneven slope emerge from the ground expressing the hardship we are yet to overcome, as we go deeper the absence of light blind our vision, while our senses only rely on rough texture crafted on surfaces to move on another phrase, taught us to embrace the flaws and hardships, this space reflects the process of self-exploration without the guidance of “light”. A dramatic drop of stairs presents a light well that captures the most intensive light when sun is located right above give a feeling of temporal as shadow cast in after, therefore we learn to appreciate the temporal existence of light. A raised platform where we begin to contemplate under the small stream of light that lit up the stairway with horizontal slits beside. Thus, allows viewing of the journey we have gone through. In the last space, transition of light from individual holes merely last for a moment while light penetrate through opening at different angles varying the sun’s movement, creating Dramatic temporal experience that remind us of the eternal intangibles.

HEART OF MACHAP Machap Baru is a small village filled with rich culture and tradition. A place where harmony is found, no matter in architecture, food, religion or celebration. A village that embrace their own beauty of Harmony, also has retained their culture, beliefs and lifestyle. This somewhat shows a contrast between young and old generations having different visions of cultural values, values that are rarely appreciated in this younger generations. 'Heart of Machap' is a sacred place which resolve the gap between eras by offering experience that changes perspective of ones of Machap Baru, along the use of architecture to create harmony.

Spatial Organisation

Idea Derivation Ideas emerge from the essence found in the past and present of Machap, which I extracted were 'Harmony' that can be felt throughout and the 'Contrast' that grew through my knowing. The intentions is to create a space that encourage younger generations to understand and embrace, while for older generationsto indulge or reminisce the past. Meanwhile, tighten the bondand harmony within the village.

Heart

Harmony The middle of the whole mass is the so called 'beating heart of Machap" where entertainments are held and people gather makes it an evergreen space.

Harmony were represented by as if 'two hands' of the people of Machap embracing the heart of Machap in the middle, reflecting the values that are precious to them

Spatial Organisation Concept Development Decided on using linear form as it is single linear space that organizes along the length a series of space. This will guide user down a straight forward journey to memoryrepository.

Contrast

As heart of Machap represents the most prominent part of the whole facade.

Therefore, emphasizingit in themiddle.

Due to the contour of the ground, slanted building will be a better option to blend-in with nature and harmonize with thesurroundingbuildings.

"CENTRALISED" Contrast were represented by the difference in height of facade, showing the vary perspective of generations as the lower represents old generation that stay closer to the 'past' while taller represents young generations living further away.
