YACHIYO
Although Atelier Tekuto’s «Relocation» project has been underway since 2007, Yachiyo is the first «Re-location» building completed in Japan. The building is situated 100 meters from the ocean in Hayama, Kanagawa prefecture. This is used as a secondary residence and temporary shop.
PURPOSE
To make 100 year old materials last for another 100 years.
To fuse old and new material, juxtaposing the regional and cultural differences in a parallel arrangement.
We treat sunlight as a material. A material that can be captured only for an instant. It has the ability to fuse the juxtaposing elements or emphasize their differences. It exists both within and outside the human concept of time. Sunlight turns the interior space inside out. It highlights the dramatic structure as it permeates the building, accentuating the marriage between traditional and contemporary values. At night, custom handmade light fixtures let Yachiyo float into sight like a constellation fireflies.
Yachiyo - Japanese word meaning «a long time».
RELOCATION
Two abandoned warehouses built 100 and 120 years ago were chosen. In order to reinforce the structure, the two warehouses were wrapped with furring strips that also function as thin columns. Enhanced high-pressure wood wool cement boards which act as insulation were attached. This provided structural reinforcement, humidity control and thermal insulation all in one system
The wrapping material was reduced to a thickness of 95mm in order to provide more interior space. Also, the preexisting material was treated in order to prevent infestation and provide resistance against the salty environment. The first floor is composed of, eighty year old bricks made in Shanghai. The material of the previous first floor was then refinished and applied to the 2nd floor. In effect, disused materials were transported from distant locations and given new life.
Re-configuring Values
“Re-configuring Values” is a concept that will permeate the 21st Century. The following concepts are essential to this discussion:
Ecology
The conservation of the global environment - the most significant theme for this century – ought to be examined from a new standpoint, through new developments and re-configurations.
Cross-Culture
Adopting specific local and regional characteristics in order to achieve not just simple integration between different architectural styles and cultures, but to create culture on an entirely new dimension.
Reconsideration of Time
A re-examination of the past in order to predict the future. An increased awareness of time as a phenomenon that can preserve local and regional differences in material and character.
It is essential to achieve a greater understanding of when to preserve, when to eliminate or when to maintain.
Based on these three approaches, we are working to “re-configure values” by recycling, reducing and relocating Japan’s traditional Minka houses in order to give them new life.

A section of the Chief William Shelton Story Pole is removed from the Capitol greenhouse and loaded onto a truck that will transport it to a storage facility in Kent. The 73-year-old Story Pole was removed from display on the Capitol Campus, cut into sections and stored in the Capitol greenhouse after extensive wood rot deemed it unsafe in 2010.
Heart Mountain Relocation Center
As you look through the site glass, you see the camp swimming hole. After an internee Boy Scout drowned while swimming in the canal during the summer of 1943, the Administration ordered a large pit excavated just below the canal. The pit was lined with gravel and filled with water, and it became the Heart Mountain swimming hole.
One of the main problems facing the Heart Mountain administrators was keeping the internees busy. Swimming, a popular summer activity, was supervised by lifeguards and swimming instructors.
During the long winter, ice-skating was a popular sport new to most internees. Youth football, basketball, baseball and softball teams were organized. High school sports teams were allowed to become members of the Wyoming Athletic Association and competed against surrounding schools. Judo, Kendo, sumo wrestling, boxing and girls' volleyball, basketball and softball teams were also organized. Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts and Campfire Girls troops were active. After camp restrictions were eased, they could hike up Heart Mountain, camp on the Shoshone River, and practice outdoor cooking, and crafts. Wyoming Senator Alan Simpson of Cody, Wyoming and U.S. Secretary of Transportation Norman Mineta, a former internee, met as Boy Scouts at the Heart Mountain camp when the Cody troop came to visit the internee troop. These two Scouts formed a lifelong friendship and served together in the United States Congress.
The internees also adopted many hobbies including painting, woodcarving, cabinetry, pottery, flower arranging, and needlework. They participated in camp sponsored plays, dances, and traditional arts such as poetry writing, mandolin, and Noh drama. An internee musical group traveled about northern Wyoming to help raise money for war bonds. Two movie theaters, the Dawn and the Pagoda, were established in barracks recreation halls and films were shown on weekends.
now I remember why
why I never let myself feel like this
it shouldn’t hurt, like every bone in my body aches
a constant chill down my spine
that reminds me I’ll never be enough
and how does my mind make up this story
rewriting a personal history, that sets a blaze
that brings my world crashing down
this fucking hurts
it shouldn’t hurt

An emergency proposal to relocate 120,000 asylum seekers from Greece, Italy and Hungary to other EU member states will be put to a vote, as a matter of urgency, at 10.00 on Thursday. This recourse to the urgency procedure (Rule 154) was proposed by President Schulz and approved in a plenary vote at the opening.
"The current refugee crisis makes it absolutely necessary (...) to act swiftly", said Mr Schulz, backed by Civil Liberties Committee Chair Claude Moraes (S&D, UK), who invited MEPs ”to express European solidarity on the refugee crisis” in the vote on Thursday.

Spotted this mother squirrel moving her little ones to a new location. This location was very near my mother-in-laws back door. But Mom may have moved them simply because they had out grown the hollow in the pecan tree! The hole just above her is where the little ones were.
Used the Motion Detection script in CHDK on the S5.

relocated for the porch project but now back up there.
I use a lot fresh but harvesting for pesto has also begun.
Relocation - Day 2. Almost all our home sweet home is packed in boxes and it's being loaded in a big Finnish truck. Sigh. Sun and nearly 20 degrees in the outside. The neighbors coming and wishing us good luck even if we were plain foreigners just 2 years ago. I'm enjoying once more the view from the roof of our house in the top of a cliff.

Relocation to Bank Quay for refreshment from the 'Costalry', and just enough time to put down the cup for a snapshot of 66773, with the 4F62 from East Midlands Gateway to Seaforth CT.
EDV is leading the construction of a new, expanded workshop for REBUILD Globally. This new workshop will be comprised of recycled shipping containers and existing structures on land donated by the Caribbean Lodge Hotel and will allow for the hiring of up to 40 more Haitian employees.
Employment is key to sustainable recovery in Haiti ...because for many Haitians, the earthquake’s effects have gone well beyond just destroying buildings. The disaster also robbed many of their livelihoods, leaving them without means to rebuild their lives.
We are honoured to help REBUILD expand their operations by using volunteer labour to construct their new workshop.
Thanks to REBUILD Globally and the Caribbean Lodge Hotel for letting us get our hands dirty on this great project.
