京都威斯汀宫古酒店成立于130年前，是一家坐落在京都市东山地区山脚下的优雅酒店，有着令人骄傲的历史。在这次对位于酒店内的独立建筑–小教堂进行重大翻新和地震改造的过程中，同样的优雅和品质是必不可少的。
Founded 130 years ago, the Westin Miyako Kyoto is an elegant hotel with a proud history nestled into the foothills of the city’s Higashiyama district. That same elegance and quality were essential in this major renovation and earthquake retrofit of the chapel, which occupies a separate building on the hotel property.
在为期两年的项目中，我们尽可能地利用了现有的框架，增加了一个木质的天花板格子，与间接照明交织在一起，让人联想到阳光从树枝上洒下来。我们还通过重新设计窗户，加强了与建筑背后树林的联系。
Over the course of the two-year project, we utilized as much of the existing framework as possible, adding a wooden ceiling lattice interwoven with indirect lighting to evoke sunlight pouring through the branches of trees. We also strengthened the connection with the woods behind the building by redesigning the windows.
墙壁上的木质百叶营造出一种深度和节奏感，既通过与天花板花格的连接将整个空间串联起来，又保证了教堂所需的高品质、宁静的回响。为了表达对周围丰富的自然环境的尊重，岩石和木头成为这个充满日本传统美学的神圣空间的中心。
The wooden louvers on the walls create a sense of depth and rhythm, both tying the entire space together by linking to the ceiling lattice and ensuring the high quality, serene reverberations required in a chapel. As a show of respect to the abundant natural surroundings, rock and wood take center stage in this sacred space imbued with a traditional Japanese aesthetic.
