Appreciation towards Florian Busch Architects for providing the following description:
项目位于Kiyamachidori，紧邻京都最密集的烟花之地先斗町，那里混杂着酒吧、剧院、旅馆、住宅、商店，几个世纪以来，已然成为京都夜生活的中心。在先斗町的东部可以看到京都的主要河流——鸭川，由于城市法规的规定，那里的风貌已经保存了几个世纪：低矮的房屋密密地排布在一起，与河流一道成为城市中最独特的景观。Kiyamchidori位于先斗町的西侧，同其主要的走向相平行。法规对这块区域的规定相对松懈，大部分的建筑有6层高。K8位于一块狭窄的基地上，嵌在两座毫无特点的高层建筑之间。

直到不久之前，在这块占地50平米的地块上就有12家酒吧分布在3座两层高的房屋内。极不显眼的高档餐厅的旁边是廉价的串烧吧，在最窄的巷子尽头是一间隐秘的日式旅馆，只要你有勇气进入这里，街道的每一个角落都有惊喜在等待着你。
Until some time ago, there were, we are told, 12 bars spread over three 2-storey houses on this 50 m2 plot on Kiyamachidori, adjacent to one of Kyoto’s most intricate network of night alleys, Pontocho, where a vibrant mixture of bars, brothels, inns, dwellings, shops have for centuries created an urban atmosphere of essential Kyoto nightlife. With an unobtrusive high-end restaurant next to a (visually less subtle) cheap yakitori, with a hidden gem of a ryokan at the end of the narrowest of side-alleys across an enigmatic place commanding courage to enter, any walk here leads to eventual surprises. As the eastern part of Pontocho looks onto Kamogawa, Kyoto’s major river, creating a unique scenery, urban regulations have not allowed this area to change much for centuries: It is still a fabric of small, low houses. To the west, Kiyamchidori runs parallel to Pontocho’s main spine. Here, regulations have loosened over time resulting in an eclectic array of buildings up to six storeys tall. K8 is on a narrow site perched between two such tall buildings representing the days when the area was declared open frontier and quick money was put in erecting (at best) nondescript mediocrity.

K8将先斗町水平向的序列转化成自己的垂直序列，一个连贯的、连续的、多变的8层空间。在这里，空间场景构成了一场正在发生的事件，进入建筑的地面层，就仿佛饮了一杯开胃的酒，随着多变的楼层缓缓向上直达顶部，向着鸭川的方向俯瞰先斗町，那美丽而生动的场景就如同餐后的浓酒让人回味。
Where Pontocho is experienced as a horizontal sequence of encounters, K8 is the translation of that experience into the vertical. In foregoing the ubiquitous elevator, which –being a secluded tube penetrating unrelated layers– divides as much as it connects, K8 is in fact one coherent, continuously varying space stretching over eight levels. Here, the evening evolves as a gradually changing course of events, from aperitif on ground level to digestif on the top overlooking Pontocho towards Kamogawa, the staircase linking a diversity of in-betweens.

同质而不断变换的表皮营造出一种模糊的立面，这在京都的很多建筑中都能够发现。随着渐变式的角度转动，700片百叶呈现出某种动感，就好像建筑本身不断地为适应环境而变换姿态。建筑的室内更多地被遮蔽起来。面对这这座建筑，人们很难猜测出它究竟有几层，进深又是几何。当人站在建筑的两侧，成角度的百叶让建筑看上去是一个实体；当人移动中间，透过多层次透明的立面可以一窥室内的情形。人的走动让立面也动了起来，好似建筑会追随着经过的人，吸引他们走进来一探这深邃而又多变的空间。
As a homogeneous yet continuously changing surface, the façade creates an ambiguity often found in Kyoto’s architecture. Through their gradual rotations, several hundred wooden louvers evoke a sense of motion, as if the building itself were continuously engaging with its environment. The building’s interior is more concealed than revealed. Facing the building, one is left without a precise answer as to how many floors or how deep the building might be. Towards the sides, the louvers are rotated to a degree that they almost appear to be a solid, albeit nuanced, wall. Towards the middle, varying degrees of transparency give subtle hints about the inside. Walking by further sets the façade in motion, as if the building itself were moving around those who pass by, engaging them by revealing glimpses of the inside in varying depths.
