东京的螺旋门廊。

门廊，是传统日式建筑不可或缺的一部分，也是最让人怀旧的部分。东京的建设土地如此昂贵，建筑师不得不放弃门廊这一概念，在极其狭窄的场地上创建一个盘旋而上的螺旋结构，所用到的钢板只有4.5毫米厚。因此这个房子的重量很轻，但是足够抵抗地震。值得一提的是，该建筑结构由造船工人使用自己的纯熟技艺搭建而成。

业主是一名设计师，他将这个房子用作SOHO，办公和住宅，建筑一共四层，地下一层是办公，楼上三层是住宅。建筑在周围环境中是一个明显的存在，外表皮是玻璃的，业主可以通过窗帘和调整百叶窗的方向获得隐私或者外面的全视野。建筑师希望人们在这样的房子里居住，家庭关系更加巩固。

1. What is the main concept of this house?
The main concept is “A Spiral Porch in tokyo” -challenging to open (or close) the privacy to urban environment. The “Porch {Engawa/縁側: in Japanese}” was essential to traditional Japanese house, therefore it is one of the most nostalgic space for all. Recently in Tokyo(JPN), lands for build some architecture are very expensive. And therefore that made us give up to create the “porch”.

So we decided to create the brand-new Engawa. Very narrow site forced to form 3-dimensional (spiral shaped) engawa structure. But this was a nice idea to create engawa outside of this ribbon. The ribbon makes shade and shadow in inside and outside. And each floor slabs, spirals, end roof are entirely made from steel plate T=4.5mm. So this house is very light weight to be supple for earthquake. No thick columns needed, all parts configure supple and strong mono- coque body.

And notably, only the craftsman skilled welding of steel ship could build this house!

2. What urban statement does the house make?
Gradual mediation, relationship and serendipity configured between urban environment and the image of dwellings.

3. With an entire skin made of glass, how can the residents obtain enough privacy?
This house has four floors. Each floors settled a half submerged from the other buildings. From inside and outside, both sight (or view) never met. And full-equipped variable vertical shutters obtain enough privacy. Therefore you can have window (or wall) anywhere you want. This causes the relationship and serendipity to everyday life.

4. Who are the clients (name, age, profession, hobbies), and how do they use this house?
The client is designer, just for live and use as SOHO.

5. What do the clients like best about their new home?(eg. favourite place in the house)
Everything 😀 (especially the engawa spiral stairs room)

6. Did their lifestyle change after moving in this house?
Family ties getting more strong.

7. What make this house a comfortable place to live according to you?
You can get the chance to build comfortable life-style from many many cerendip-activities of the city Through the spiral “Engawa”.
