The average age of the project's buildings is 38.6 years (as of 2016). It is a public-private partnership facility with no specific purpose, built in Nagoya, the youngest city in Japan's Aichi Prefecture, with the concept of "a place designed for new connections."The relationship between the "large corridor" and "small rooms" is a clear example of how architectural design can inspire new activities and connections. The main corridor, lined with small wooden frames, is spacious and open, creating an atmosphere that encourages spontaneous visits. Each small room features different interior decor, allowing individuals to choose a unique space based on their activities. By utilizing wooden accessories between the main corridor and the rooms, activities can unfold leisurely—touching musical instruments while playing chess or crafting while reading aloud.To create a column-free space, we avoided installing wooden frames only in the unreachable ceiling areas. Instead, we used 105mm square lumber sourced from the prefecture, enabling local residents to perceive and utilize the space on a familiar scale.
