世田谷区下馬のマンションリノベーション。限られた面積の住戸に抜けと回遊性を持たせ、広がりを確保することを目指した。LDKと寝室を隣接させ高さ1mの腰壁で仕切ることで、LDKの広がりを保ちつつ寝室のプライバシーが確保できる設えとした。腰壁の仕上げは他の部分と切り替え玄関まで連続させている。玄関とLDKをつなぐ廊下は間口を広く取り、光沢のあるタイルで仕上げることで光を住戸の奥まで導き、壁一面の棚柱はタイル目地に納める事で意匠を損なわずに拡張性を獲得している。
A renovation of an apartment in Shimouma, Setagaya. The design focuses on creating a sense of openness and a circular flow within a limited area to maximize the feeling of space. By placing the living area and bedroom adjacent to each other and separating them with a one-meter-high partition wall, we maintained the spaciousness of the living area while securing privacy for the bedroom. The finish of this wall is distinct from other elements and extends continuously toward the entrance. The hallway connecting the entrance and the living area features a wide opening and is finished with glossy tiles to lead natural light deep into the unit. We integrated the wall-mounted shelf pilasters into the tile joints, achieving functional flexibility without compromising the design aesthetic.
