REFLECTION OF MINERAL

The site is located near the center of Tokyo. It is a small 44m2 corner plot bounded by two streets. Conforming to legal conditions and in response to the client’s wish for a ‘roofed garage’ the volume was trimmed from various directions. Using the words ‘Mineral’ and ‘reflection’ as guiding concepts, Atelier Tekuto proceeded to use subtraction as a positive tool for design.

 

MINERAL

Minerals are phenomena that combine abstract properties (conceptual objects) with nonfigurative properties (objects whose presence of matter is more tangible). Changes from transparent to translucent to opaque occur according to light intensity and angle. The mineral body cannot be regarded as a simple element.

 

REFLECTION

Reflection is a recent concept pertaining to the perception of space. Vision is an important factor in the recognition of space. By controlling geometries (facets with three factors: transparent, translucent and opaque) and entangling them in a three-dimensional way inside the internal space, visual reflection is induced. This results in a deviation from the restrictiveness of space.

As people move inside the space, or as light enters from changing angles, the facet’s presence changes, creating a dynamic space. In contrast to the abstractness of the polyhedron are the kitchen, counter shelf, stairs, floors and toilet box equipped with functionality that exist as nonfigurative objects.

The third floor bathroom unit features a mirror finish in stainless steel, which combines both concepts of object and reflection, and presents itself as a substitution of both ‘minerals’ and ‘reflection’.

 

The Relationship with the surrounding environment is expressed in the small plaza open to the street, a piloti like space that emerged after placing the garage on ground floor. Its liberating feeling might trigger some change in the surrounding streetscape.

敷地は東京の住宅密集地にあり、5.15mと3.70mの道路に鋭角に挟まれた、44.62㎡の小さな異形敷地である。建築法規的に道路斜線が二方向からかかり北側斜線も含め、最大ボリュームの形が多角形に切り取られる。

若きクライアントの3つの要望(面白い・最大ボリュームの確保・屋根付き駐車場)と敷地が持つ絶対条件から最初に思い描いたものは地中に『鉱物』が埋れているイメージ。

様々な角度から受ける規制と採光、住居としてのスペースを最大ボリュームから削りとり、多角形がもつ面の構成を壁・床・天井・開口と、建築における空間構成へ置換して形態を決定した。

その行為はダイヤモンドの価値を決めるのに最も重要されるCutと同様である。

Humbolt Penguin at the Cotswold wildlife park who liked his reflection as seemed to stand there for ages looking at it!

Fall at Reflections Lake, also called Mud Lake, located in the Palmer Hay Flats along the Knik River. The lake has only recently been stocked with trout, but it can occasionally salmon can become land-locked during extreme high tides from Cook Inlet. The banks of the Knik River then spill into the lake.

For Take a class with Dave & Dave, Week 11, Assignment 2:

 

We were challenged to take a picture of an object, naturally framed by something in the foreground. I've been driving past this flag every day for the past two years, and I knew that I needed to take a picture of it eventually. *laugh*

 

My first attempt is here, but you're right, the flagpole & obnoxious power lines do kinda ruin it. So I had to wait for another clear day & thankfully yesterday was gorgeous. I stopped on my way home & had to be patient as I waited for the wind to hit the flag just right to bring out all the red. =)

 

I cropped, sharpened & tuned up the colors of this picture in Picasa. =)

 

Woo Hoo! Made Explore @ #178 =D

Taken through a restaurant window so what you may have thought were some UFOs and a Tardis are reflections from inside the building.

Taken in Bethesda, Maryland.

Reflections of ourselves are abundant in the world around us. This view of my world was captured in the back alley of an historic span of building in downtown Exeter, NH.

 

This RAW image was post processed in 8 bits/channel and cropped to highlight only the doors, while placing me in almost a 1/3 rule perspective. The overall image was duotone and the window reflections were screened.

This is a reflection of the sunrise on a marble bar top at work. I like the way that it looked like water with a boat in the distance.

Not original.. this may have been overdone!

This reflection of trees in a puddle on my patio was taken only a few minutes after the most tremendous hailstorm!

I just love reflection shots. :)

Lousy reflection! See clearly and you'll know what I mean. I had less than 1 minute to capture this, position was all not right. Just two snaps, and then I had to rush to board the ferry to Phi Phi.

People walking the breakwater at Knightstone, at the north end of Weston Super Mare. The foreground water basin is calm enough to produce reflections, while telescopic foreshortening brings Steepholm, in the Bristol Channel, into view behind. Heavy shower clouds colour the sky.

Went on a whale-watching trip in Iceland. The ocean was so still that this bird got to enjoy its own reflection while gliding over the water.
