Maruhon Fukuoka Office & Showroom / KATORI archi+design associates

来自建筑事务所的描述。位于福冈市郁郁葱葱的某住宅区内的是Maruhon在日本西部的第一间办公室和展室，Maruhon是室内装饰用天然木材的制造商。设计强调了Maruhon产品的丰富细节，令人联想到一棵于场地上屹立多年的大树形象。

Text description provided by the architects. Located in a verdant residential neighborhood in the city of Fukuoka, this is the first office and showroom in western Japan for Maruhon, a manufacturer of natural wood for interiors. The design highlights the rich detail of Maruhon’s products, evoking the image of a huge tree that seems to have stood on the site for many years.









委托人的诉求是在约70平米的场地里建造一处工作空间，并储存展示超过四百种样板。建筑师将木制建筑本身转化为展示样板的装置，这样建筑、家具和产品成为同一形式下的三个层次。因为结构层也作为饰面，项目需要严谨的施工规划和严格的品控，需要熟练、经验丰富的木匠。

The client requested a workspace and area for storing and displaying over four hundred sample boards on the approximately 70m2 site. We responded by transforming the wooden building itself into a device for displaying samples, so that architecture, furniture, and product become three aspects of the same form. Because the structure serves as the finished surface, the project required both scrupulous construction planning and rigorous quality control, making highly skilled, experienced carpenters essential.   



沿着缓坡走进建筑内部，映入眼帘的是罗列了无数样板的醒目空间。宽敞的两层通高中庭始于地下半层，二层办公室上方设有天窗。拾四级而下是一层展室和工作空间，包含了架下可用作桌子的窗台，设计师们和委托人们将在这个令人振奋的空间里处理样品。在整个建筑中，窗子的数量尽可能地少，强调了被木材围绕的体验感。

Stepping inside the building from the gentle slope where it sits, one is immediately greeted by a striking space filled with countless samples of natural wood. The spacious, two-story atrium begins a half-floor below ground, with a skylight over the second-floor office. The first-floor showroom and workspace, which is reached by descending four steps, includes a ledge below the wrap-around shelves that serves as a table where designers and clients can handle samples in an inspiring, uplifting space. Throughout the building, windows are kept to a minimum to enhance the experience of being surrounded by wood.



椭圆形建筑的外墙由来自日本Tenryu区域的雪松木板制成，无缝内扣以强调光影效果，并用自然植物染色（从四季树叶、浆果和根系中提取）来提高木材的吸引力。随着时间流逝，建筑师预期建筑会进一步融入周边环境，像一棵老树一样成为社区的象征。

The exterior walls of the oval building are made of Japanese cedar planks from the Tenryu region, seamlessly interlocked to emphasize the play of light and shadow and stained with natural plant dyes (produced from leaves, berries, and roots collected through the seasons) to enhance the attractiveness of the wood. As time passes, we anticipate that the building will blend further into its surroundings, becoming as much a symbol of the neighborhood as an iconic old tree.
