在山中湖附近的森林中为一家香水公司建造工厂。该地有富士山的美景,我们的客户需要一个咖啡馆、商店和客房,而不仅仅是一个具有欣赏山景的花园的工厂功能。该公司以自然、友好融入人类生活的理念创造日用香氛产品,他们希望将该建筑打造为吸引当地人聚集的 “友好象征”。

A factory for a fragrance company in a forest near Lake Yamanaka. The site has a fine view of Mt. Fuji and our client required a café, shop, and guest rooms not only a factory function with a garden for enjoying the mountain view. The company creates daily fragrance products with the concept of nature, friendly integrated into human life and they hoped to create the building as “a friendly symbol” which attracts local people’s gathering.

我们将所需的功能转化为五个不同大小的盒子,以避免典型的大工厂体量的感觉,并在平面和剖面上将它们移位,就像一个玛格丽特娃娃。移位后的构图使所有房间都能看到山景,因此我们可以在盒子之间的缝隙中放置画窗。

We translated the required functions into five different sizes of boxes to avoid the typical feeling of a big factory volume and shifted them in both plan and section like a matryoshka doll. The shifted composition allows having the mountain views from all rooms so that we could put picture windows in gaps between the boxes.

窗户根据房间的功能以随机的比例排列,显示出不同的山景构架方式。五个盒子都有面向富士山的深屋檐。因此,游客一开始就会遇到一系列向上的屋顶和敏感的木质椽子,作为一种 “欢迎感”。一个用于游乐场的花园,用于种植草药,通过一个人字形的露台与建筑物相连。

The windows are in random proportions according to room function and show a different way of framing the mountain views. The five boxes have deep eaves facing Mt. Fuji. So, visitors encounter the series of the upward roof with sensitive wood rafters as a “Sense of welcome “at first. A garden for the playground, for growing herbs, is connected to the buildings by a zigzag terrace.

在室内,游客体验到空间规模随着建筑的深度而变大。我们的基本室内设计主题是简单和宁静,反映了公司的理念,以享受自然光的变化和山的外观的每一刻。支撑屋顶的结构性胶合板墙体被暴露出来,并被涂成蓝绿色,这是公司的颜色,与橙色的屋檐背板形成柔和的对比。二楼的空间颜色被淡化,颜色较深,营造出轻松的客房氛围,并配有舒适的家具。

For the interior, visitors experience that the space scale becomes bigger in accordance with the depth of the building. Our basic interior design theme is simpleness and tranquility as a reflection of the company’s concept in order to enjoy the change of natural light and the mountain’s appearance moment by moment. Structural plywood walls supporting the roofs are exposed and painted in blue-green which is the company’s color making soft contrast with the orange-colored eave back. The space color of the 2nd floor is toned down and darker for a relaxed guest room atmosphere with a cozy furniture setting.
