飲食店や高級クラブが立ち並ぶ銀座数寄屋通り沿い、築50年のビルを改修したアートギャラリー。改修を通じて、建物の歴史をこの先に繋ぐことを試みた。具体的には、新旧の素材を並置させつつも、それぞれの肌理やトーンを揃えることで、過去と現代をスムーズにつないでいる。また、既存の柱梁構造による構成の力強さを最大限活かしたシンプルな平面レイアウトとすることで、フレキシブルな空間でありながら、この場所ならではの展示空間をつくった。
This project is a renovation of a 50-year-old building, an art gallery. It is situated along Ginza Sukiya street which consists of eating and drinking establishments and luxury clubs. Through refurbishment, we attempted to connect the history of the building to the future. Specifically, while aligning new and old materials side by side, we assemble each texture and tone so that it connects past and the future. In addition, by creating a simple layout it makes maximum use of the boldness of the structure based on the existing column beam structure. It is a flexible space, but it retains its unique style with which the place was created.
