DISCIPLINES

The headquarters is an isolated outpost for a team of men (no women in residence) who live here to control and manage windmills in this neighborhood, as well as in remote locations throughout Japan.  It contains dormitory rooms for 21 people, with communal facilities, a mechanical shop/garage, as well as the office space, windmill control room, and conference rooms. 

LANDSCAPE

As a reaction to the desolate yet sublime landscape of the Nemuro peninsula, and as the metaphor of capturing the offerings of Nature, the headquarters of a wind farm company was designed to be firmly anchored on the plateau. As a metaphorical architecture, it resonates to the sound of Pacific waves, scintillates under the stars that fill half the celestial sphere, or be muted by the thick blanket of fog, while capturing the power of the wind through the sky. At the periphery of the human domain bordering the wilderness, its layered plan organizes the internal program in a natural progression of the depth of displacement from the man-made towards the natural.
