精度が手掛かり

省スペース化する時の手掛かりは精度である。

人と建築の関係性をより単純で簡素にし、より密にするために設えを省スペース化し、壁の厚みの中に納めてしまえば、それは飛行機のトイレのように、匿名性が生まれ、設えの差異が壁の厚みだけになり、人は壁の厚みを選べば、それも気分次第で選べば、日常の営みがはじまる。

すなわち、それは「壁の厚み」を通して、人と建築の関係性がより直になり、また、日常の営みとより直結するので、より人と建築の関係性が濃密になる。

ただ、単に設えを小さくし、壁の厚みの中に納めれば良いという訳では無くて、狭いのと省スペースは違う。

飛行機のトイレを思い浮かべると、狭くてもその狭さを感じことは案外少ないが、実際はとても狭く、しかし、その狭さを感じないことが、そこでの営みの快適性につながる。

ではなぜ、その狭さを感じないか、それは限られたスペースの中で、余計なものが存在せず、適切な場所に適切なものが精度よく納められていて、そこでの営みが疎外されずに快適で、特に何も意識しないでも、普段通りの営みを送ることができるから。

だから、精度ほど、日常の営みに直結し、快適性につながるものはない。

"Accuracy is a clue"

The key to saving space is accuracy.

To make the relationship between people and architecture simpler, simpler, and more dense, save space and fit it in the wall thickness, it becomes anonymity, like an airplane toilet. The difference is only the thickness of the wall, and if a person chooses the thickness of the wall, it also depends on the mood, and everyday activities begin.

In other words, through "thickness of the wall", the relationship between people and architecture becomes more straightforward, and since it is more directly linked to daily activities, the relationship between people and architecture becomes more dense.

However, it does not mean that it is only necessary to reduce the size of the installation and fit it within the wall thickness.

When you think of an airplane toilet, it is surprisingly rare to feel the narrowness of a plane, but in fact it is very narrow, but not feeling the narrowness leads to the comfort of operation there.

So why don't you feel the narrowness of it? There is no extra space in a limited space, and the right things are accurately stored in the right places, and the activities there are not excluded. Because it is comfortable and you can send your daily work without being conscious of anything.

Therefore, there is nothing that is directly related to daily activities and leads to comfort as much as accuracy.
