Twin Bricks,由两翼组成–一个五单元的出租住宅和业主自己的两户住宅。它位于一个安静的住宅区,从东京乘火车只需20分钟。为了保证业主的汽车收藏空间,业主的侧翼(RC翼)比出租侧翼(S翼)更靠近道路。出租翼采用了蒸压轻质混凝土(ALC)面板和玻璃砖。

Twin Bricks, consists of two wings – A five unit rental dwelling and the owner’s own two-family house. It is located in a quiet residential area, just 20 minutes by train from Tokyo. In order to secure some space for the owner’s car collection, the owner’s wing (RC Wing) stands closer to the road than the rental wing (S Wing). The rental wing is clad in both autoclaved lightweight concrete (ALC) panels as well as glass blocks.

S WING

S翼,基于之前完成的 “水晶砖 “住宅,引入了ALC板作为抗震元素,以提高地震安全方面的成本效益。玻璃砖和ALC板的布置是通过一系列的实验得出的。结果表明,ALC板的失效使玻璃砖完好无损,为居住者提供了更高的安全性。由于玻璃砖和ALC板的看似随机的组成,隐藏了所有的结构,从而形成了一个耐人寻味的空间组成。

S WING

The S Wing, based on the previously completed “Crystal Brick” House, introduces ALC panels as aseismatic elements in order to improve cost-effectiveness in the face of earthquake safety. The arrangement of glass block and ALC panel was derived from a series of experiments. The results showed that the ALC panel fail leaving the glass blocks intact, providing enhanced safety for the occupants. An intriguing spatial composition materializes due to the seemingly random composition of the glass block and ALC Panels which hide all structure.

RC WING

为了减轻车库的噪音并为业主提供隐私感,Atelier Tekuto有限公司创造了 “RC结构+外部隔热 “的施工方法。通过引入高压木丝水泥板,并将木丝水泥板作为模板工程进行整合,大大降低了成本。经过仔细考虑,还开发了原创瓷砖。沉重的RC翼和轻盈的S翼的并置,以及玻璃的透明与ALC板的不透明之间的并置,使双子砖的整体体验更加突出。虽然这些材料似乎是对立的,但它们在一起时表现出一种材料的和谐。

RC WING

With the purpose of alleviating noise from the garage and providing a sense of privacy for the owners, Atelier Tekuto Co., Ltd. created the “RC structure + exterior thermal insulation” construction method. Costs were significantly reduced by introducing high-pressure wood wool cement boards and integrating the boards as form works. Original tiles were also developed after careful consideration. The overall experience of Twin Bricks is heightened by the juxtaposition of the heavy RC wing and light S wing and between the transparency of glass versus the opacity of the ALC panels. Though these materials seem to be in antithesis, they exhibit a material harmony when partnered together.
