チタンで寺をつくる

智探庵
Titanium Monastery

チタンをはじめとするレアメタルを扱う商社を営みながら、得度し僧侶となった施主の住宅である。
プロジェクトを始めるにあたり、施主から大きく2つの要望があった。
1つ目は建築の分野で使用される事が少ないチタンという素材を随所に使用することで、「建材としてのチタン」の可能性を世の中に広めること。
2つ目は寺のようにお茶会や講演会など様々なイベントを通して人々が集える、京都の文化拠点にすること。
チタンは強く・軽く・耐食性に優れるといった特性があるため、主に風雨に晒され躯体を守る外装材として使用した。屋根や外壁は金属板の一般的な葺き方である縦ハゼや横一文字でチタン板を葺き、ファサードダブルスキン部はチタンならではの処理技術である電解発色処理を施したチタン板を使用した。
外装材として使用したチタン板は徐々に酸化が進んでいくため、経年変化し風合いが変わっていく。また、電解発色処理を施したチタン板は太陽光の角度や視線の角度により色味や見え方が時間と共に連続的に変わっていく。
どこにでもある金属外装材加工場でも加工可能な汎用性の高い素材でありながらも、時間経過や周辺状況に合わせて表情を変えるという、チタンならではの魅力を世の中に広める。智探庵自体が「建材としてのチタン」の広告塔となることを目指した。
建物構成は近隣住民など人々の集いやすい1階2階に展示室・茶室・サロンといった寺機能、プライベート性の高い3階4階には施主夫妻が住む住宅機能を配置し、建物中央部に寺機能と住宅機能を貫く吹き抜けを設けた。
吹け抜け部分には高さ6mのチタン製薬師如来像立像を造立する予定である。

This is the residence of the owner who became a priest while operating a trading company that handles rare metals such as titanium.In starting the project, there were two major requests from the owner.The first is to spread the potential of “titanium as a building material” to the world by using titanium that is rarely used in the field of architecture.The second is to make it a cultural base in Kyoto where people can gather through various events such as tea parties and lectures like temples.Titanium is strong, light, and has excellent corrosion resistance, so it was used mainly as an exterior material to protect the building body by being exposed to wind and rain. The roof and the outer wall were made of titanium plate with standing seam roofing and straight line roofing, which are common methods for metal plates, and the facade double skin part was made of titanium plate with electrolytic coloring treatment, which is a processing technique unique to titanium.The titanium plate used as the exterior material gradually oxidizes, so the texture changes over time. In addition, the color and appearance of the titanium plate subjected to the electrolytic color treatment changes continuously with time depending on the angle of sunlight and the angle of view.Although it is a highly versatile material that can be processed at any metal exterior material processing site, it spreads the appeal of titanium with a unique expression that changes with time and surrounding conditions. Titanium Monastery aimed to become an advertising tower for “titanium as a building material”.The building is composed of temple functions such as an exhibition room, tea room, and salon on the first floor and second floor where people such as neighboring residents can easily gather.On the 3rd and 4th floors, which have a high level of privacy, the housing functions for the owners and husbands are arranged, and an atrium that penetrates the temple and housing functions in the center of the building.A 6m tall titanium buddha statue will be maked in the atrium.
