Minagawa Village / Saisei Kenchiku Laboratory
Inherits the memories of four 60-year-old wooden buildings and a hand-made garden into the future. This is a revitalization(SAISEI) project of a group of wooden buildings left behind in the middle of Omotesando, Tokyo. The four buildings had been repeatedly extended and reconstructed without the certification as required by the Building Standard Law. However, there was the owner's strong desire to keep these buildings. Â The handmade garden surrounded by a group of buildings and a Tsukiyama (handmade mountain) shut out the surrounding noise and created a unique atmosphere that was both powerful and nostalgic, as if they were like a hideaway left in the middle of Omotesando, one of the most modern districts in Tokyo.
