concept

A complex facility for the elderly with a unit-type short stay (20 beds) and a group home (18 beds) with a community exchange space.

A cohesive open space on the east side of the site, a parking lot for 20 cars on the south side, a stall warehouse and a community open parking lot for 10 cars on the north side, and two parking lots on the west side. A two-story volume with a central corridor-type flat surface was set up in a room of about 70m x 15m in the center of the site, which was derived from the request from the corporation and the surrounding environment. Placed a group home.

On the plaza side, we adjusted the sense of distance according to each part with wooden decks, louvers, trees, etc. in order to create a sense of unity between the plaza and the room while giving consideration to the neighboring houses across the plaza. In the garden, various areas such as "Thicket Forest", "Fruit Tree Garden", "Flower Garden", and "Tsukiyama" are arranged.

The intention was to create a facility where you can enjoy the garden by connecting to it.
