This core community building in the Kozakai district of Toyokawa contains a community center, library, children’s center, and city hall branch office. The design was selected in a 2017 competition. The spatial appeal of a mixed-use buildings such as this comes largely from its handling of common areas. While individual spaces such as the meeting rooms, music studio, event hall, and kitchen are of course also important, it is the natural overflow of sounds, sights, and other hints of activity into the common areas that gives the facility as a whole its vibrancy.

Two aspects of `Old city of Ordinary people` and `New big merchant City`
This building is a rental building that has 6-stories RC construction in Osu, Nagoya.
Although rental buildings tend to be affected by the degree of prosperity of the city, I think it can bring out its potential, which is city in microcosm. Since there are shrines and temples, traditional shopping street, vaudeville theater in Osu, daily life, commerce and entertainment are intermingled as a city of ordinary people. This site is also facing with a main street with highway and Sakae that is the central city of Nagoya. This site has two aspects of “Old city of Ordinary people” and “New big merchant City”. To take advantage of this trait of the city, I designed the architecture with two aspects.

This building which makes a feeling of chaos of the town a building is a small lease building built on the outskirts of the Osu mall of Nagoya. The Osu mall is one of the success examples that is rare in Japan reproduced as an arcade type mall. By the success of this mall, the new store which did conversion in a store continues multiplying a private house and the office building of the neighborhood now. As for the example that I repaired to the multi-tenant building which constituted an office building in particular and an apartment at plural stores, plural stores coexist ambiguously on inside stairs running through the laminated floor, and charm of the chaos such as a laminated market attracts people. Though it was the new construction that emphasized a violent skeleton of the concrete to make use of a feeling of this chaos, I wanted to make quality of the space such as the ruins.
