Reception╱Sumu Fumu Terrace

接待中心/Sumu Fumu藝廊

A communication lounge designed for the home builder Sekisui House Ltd. With the change in needs of potential homebuyers caused by the increasing amount of information available online, the conventional housing service with showhouse or room mockup has been replaced by a more long-term, intangible one such as consultation on lifestyle, maintenance, and adaptation to changing family structures. Such trends have minimized the service style with material samples and models, in favor of more diverse communication spaces such as a cafe, gallery, and lounge. Offering casual housing consultation over a cup of coffee, the lounge regularly hosts a variety of seminars, workshops, art exhibitions, and other contents that lead to a fulfilling lifestyle. The lounge is also equipped with an open design studio function to help visitors feel more comfortable with the architects.

 

In order to make the space variable enough to accommodate a variety of contents and open enough to dispel the sense of uneasiness that comes from closed spaces, glass doors were used as part of the design. They bring a sense of openness by letting in natural light and greenery from the outside, while maintaining the functional role as a partition between inside and outside. Two hundred frames are arranged in a spiral shape with plants in between, to gently divide the large space with a sense of ambiguity to one’s whereabouts. Rails are built in the glass doors to allow for flexible attachment of shelves, hangers, hooks, and monitors. Floor materials and ceiling louvers of two subtly different colors, applied in the same alternating directions, highlight the visual effect. The space is a good example of freedom and diversity created by the gradual partition with glass doors, which neither restricts the use of space nor human activities.

日本nendo設計工作室為房屋建築商 Sekisui House Ltd.打造了一座交誼廳。在日本,以樣品屋、實品屋或放置建築模型的短期接待中心已日漸式微,隨著網路資訊的發達,讓潛在消費族群的買房需求開始有了變化,相較於以往,如今更在乎的是建商如何呈現居住的生活風格、如何長期維護住宅、以及居家空間如何適應不斷變化的家庭結構等。

 

此種趨勢雖然消弭了過去習慣展示材料樣品、房屋模型的服務風格,反之,有利於多樣化交流空間的出現,例如:咖啡館、畫廊、放鬆的諮詢室。諮詢室以提供咖啡為來訪的消費者創造休閒的看房體驗,同時,其他空間也會定期各種研討會、工作坊、藝術展覽和其他活動,藉此呈現豐富充實的生活型態。諮詢室亦配備開放室設計工作室,讓消費族群和建築師之間更有連結,藉此感到休閒舒適。

 

為了讓交誼廳的空間足以應變多種活動,並消除封閉空間帶來的不安感。玻璃門便成為設計的一大焦點,不僅從室外引入自然光和綠色景觀植物帶來開放感,同時身兼室內和戶外的透明隔牆。偌大空間裡,有兩百個玻璃框架以螺旋狀排列,中間夾著植物,輕盈地劃分出動線,使人有一種去向不明的曖昧感。而玻璃門之間亦埋藏導軌,可靈活連接置物板、衣架、掛鉤和顯示器。兩種微妙不同顏色的地板材料和天花板百葉窗,以相同的交替方向應用,突出了視覺效果。該空間是由玻璃門漸進式隔斷所創造的自由和多樣性的一個很好的例子,既不限制空間的使用,也不限制人類的活動。
