日本豐中住宅的嵌入式開窗
House in Toyonaka embeds windows in gaps between monolithic grey boxes
日本Fujiwaramuro Architects事務所在日本豐中設計了一系列盒子建築，體量之間的間隙可以讓光線和空氣進入內部，同時保護居住者的隱私。
建築師Shintaro Fujiwara和Yoshio Muro於2002年創立Fujiwaramuro建築設計事務所，在大阪市中心以北的豐中市住宅區設計建造了這座建築。
Japanese studio FujiwaraMuro Architects designed House in Toyonaka, Osaka, as a series of offset boxes with gaps between them that allow light and air to enter the house, while maintaining the occupants' privacy.
FujiwaraMuro Architects, founded by architects Shintaro Fujiwara and Yoshio Muro in 2002, created the Japanese house as a direct response to its urbanised site in a residential area of Toyonaka city, to the north of central Osaka.
場地周圍環繞着建築，也沒有任何引人注意的景色。因為上述原因，同時為了保護客戶的隱私，建築師將開窗面積減到了最小。
建築師解釋說：“我們設計的目標是創造令人驚喜且美妙的空間，沒有大窗戶直面周圍的世界的緊張感。”
The site is enclosed by nearby neighbours and lacks any noteworthy views. For this reason, and to ensure the clients' privacy, the architects designed a building with minimal openings in its facades.
"The aim of the design was to create a stimulating and beautiful space that nevertheless had no large windows and was closed to the outside world," the studio explained.
建築的平面呈L形，由三個相互分隔的體量組成，這些體量之間有狹窄間隙。新鮮空氣和日光從這個垂直開口輸送進建築，同時也帶給了建築獨有的美感。
“通過這些小開口，有時候你會瞥到天空和樹影，感到賞心悅目。”建築師說。
“陽光對於建築的光影效果影響很大，可以使居民意識到陽光會隨着時間不斷變化。”
House in Toyonaka's L-shaped plan comprises three boxes that are separated by narrow gaps. These horizontal and vertical openings funnel fresh air and daylight into the building, while highlighting specific views.
"The smallness of these openings is precisely what makes the sudden glimpses of sky or streetscape they offer so striking," the architects added.
"The way sunlight pours in through them is also remarkable; they serve as devices for making the residents conscious that sunlight constantly shifts over time."
從外觀上看，這三個空間使用了互補的材料，有助於區分建築的不同部分。
車庫和入口的一樓部分由現澆混凝土構成，用於將模板固定在一起的連接螺栓的孔洞也面向外部。
Externally, the three volumes are finished in materials that complement each other but help to distinguish the different parts of the House in Toyonaka.
The ground-floor section housing the garage and entrance is formed of in-situ concrete that still displays holes from the tie bolts used to hold the formwork together.
其中一個盒子用與混凝土顏色相近的垂直木條包裹，另一個盒子表面是灰色面板，給人以光滑均勻的質感。
入口的一個小休息室和樓梯通向主要的起居空間。開放的空間包含了一間廚房和餐廳，通過高差來區分餐廳和起居空間。
One of the upper boxes is wrapped in vertical battens of timber with a similar hue to the concrete, while the other is clad in grey panels that give it a smooth, uniform appearance.
The entrance level contains a small lounge and a stairwell that leads up to the main living space. This open-plan room contains a kitchen and dining area that is separated from the living room by a change in level.
在起居室的一側是採光井，它貫穿建築。新鮮空氣來到玻璃體量之中，使得這個體量成為了建築核心的半室外空間。
採光井有着玻璃樓板，讓自然光能夠進入到車庫的內部，同時通過體塊之間的間隙而建築其他內部空間也充滿光線。
On one side of the living space is a light well that extends vertically through the building. Fresh air entering the glazed volume turns it into a semi-outdoor space at the heart of the house.
The light well has a glass floor that enables natural illumination to reach the garage and supplement daylight filtering through the gaps between the blocks.
另一個玻璃體插入了起居和餐廳的中央的地面，區分了兩個垂直的空間，並在兩個平面上創造了視覺連接。
卧室的水平面比狹長的窗戶高，從起居室到卧室，有一組懸臂式的金屬台階與之相連。卧室和廚房的木地板與居住區的混凝土形成了溫暖的對比。
Another glass insert in the floor between the living and dining spaces follows the gap dividing the two vertical volumes and creates a visual connection between the two levels.
A set of cantilevered metal steps leads up from the living space to a sleeping area elevated above the narrow horizontal window. Wooden flooring in the bedroom and kitchen provides a warmer counterpoint to the concrete of the living zone.
內置置物架沿着開放空間的一層牆體安裝，整體混凝土廚房單元安裝在踏步旁邊，可以起到座椅的作用。
FujiwaraMuro建築事務所的主要作品是在日本的創造性住宅，包括一座帶有階梯式屋頂窗的房屋，和有着一條從花園延伸到起居區的住宅。

Built-in shelving is incorporated along one wall of the minimal open-plan room, and a monolithic concrete kitchen unit is positioned close to the steps so they can function as additional seating.
FujiwaraMuro Architects regularly works on inventive residential projects in Japan, including a house with stepped dormers integrated into its sloping roof, and another property incorporating a circular path that extends from the garden into the living areas.
