神奈川県愛川町の多世代の人々が集う拠点施設の計画。すでに高齢化率が30%を超えるこの町では、今後のさらなる高齢化、生産人口の減少に加え、外国人居住者の比率も高く、多世代、多様な人が支え合う空間づくりが求められている。高齢者の住まいや通いのデイサービス拠点、障がいのある人や出所者の働く場、言語の壁で教育格差を抱える子供の通う寺子屋、家庭内の家事を補助する洗濯代行や惣菜販売、開かれたシェアオフィス。『春日台センターセンター』は、これらを組み合わせ、かつて賑わったスーパー『春日台センター』の跡地を集いの場として再構成する計画である。

この建築は、商店街のメインプロムナードに木造架構の庇を伸ばし、カウンターやベンチ、小上がりなど開かれた居場所が連続する。南側のプロムナードから住宅地へと続く敷地の奥行き方向に室の開放度合いが徐々に変化し、静かな個室群が並ぶ。奥行方向のみならず、高さ方向にも開放の度合いが変化する。この段階的空間構成に建築を貫く２本の土間が重なり、新鮮な空気と光が流れる。室のスケール、光と影、風といった多彩な変数の居場所が、様々な人の営みを支えていく。

This project is a base facility for multi-generation people in Aikawa Town, Kanagawa Prefecture.

In this town where the aging rate has already exceeded 30%, in addition to further aging and a decline in the production population, the proportion of foreign residents is high, and it is necessary to create a space that supports many generations and diverse people. 

The project include a place for the elderly care, a place to work for disability people, a terakoya for children with educational disparities due to language barriers, laundry service, side dish stand, and shared office. The “Kasugadai Center Center” is planned to combine these and reconstruct the site of the once-popular supermarket “Kasugadai Center” as a gathering place.

In this architecture, a wooden frame eave is extended on the main promenade of the shopping block, and open places such as counters, benches and raised floor are continuous. The opening of the rooms gradually changes in the depth direction of the site from the promenade on the south side to the residential area, and quiet private rooms line up.The degree of opening varies not only in the depth direction but also in the height direction. The two spaces that penetrate the building overlap this stepwise space composition, and fresh air and light flow. The location of various variables such as room scale, light and shadow, and wind will support the activities of various people.
