With this building we tried to wrap and open the space simultaneously.

By first wrapping the entire building with a continuous plate the boundary between inside and outside is shown clearly. This secures a compact space for living in the varied climate of Kurobe and meets the security needs for a women's dormitory specifically requested by the company. At the same time by opening the common areas, fluidity and continuity are brought to the relationship between interior and exterior spaces as well as that with the various communal facilities inside. We thought that balancing the wrapping and opening in this way would make it possible to support a relatively free private life as well as to promote relations with neighbors within a secured comfortable communal residence.
