TADASHI YHOSIMURA INTERVIEW WITH j.j.magazine
1. Please Introduce ‘TADASHI YOSIMURA ARCHITECTS’ To Us.
TADASHI YOSIMURA ARCHITECTS is a Nara, Japan-based architecture office founded by Tadashi Yoshimura and Yihsuan Lin in 2006. We work in a former pharmacy, an old-fashioned traditional Japanese townhouse built about 200 years ago. We are now doing several projects, residence, renovation, town-planning, etc, utilizing local materials and traditional skills for our creation. Besides, not only in Japan but also in Korea and in Taiwan we have proposed several projects that architecture is as part of landscape, utilizing local building techniques and materials.
2. What Is Most Important To You When It Come To Building House?
First, residents feel safe, relax, rich, happy. Second, building connects to environment and nature.
3. The ‘WOOD BLOCK HOUSE’ Series Jump Off the Page. What Motivated You To Start This Project?
We are interested in integration traditional and contemporary. In Japan there are a lot of beautiful wooden buildings utilizing traditional wooden construction skills. But nowadays because of speed and cost, most houses are built without traditional techniques.
4. What Were You Trying to Portray Through ‘WOOD BLOCK HOUSE’ Project?
We were trying to integrate traditional skills and modern materials, creating new wooden structural system on limited budged, speedy. This structural wall consists of several wooden blocks that can be easily stacked without the help of skilled workers, and be disassembled and assembled in different location if necessary in the future. Now we try to apply this wooden block system to fast shelter after earthquakes.
5. Do You Believe That Architecture Could Be a Vital Element to change Social Environment?
I think that architecture is one of several important factors to change social environment. Today resources are limited, so we have to be aware of impact of architecture on nature and environment.
6. Building Nowadays Are Sky-high and Gigantic. Curved and Warped Lines Exude Beauty Whereas Candidly Straight Lines Loose Charm. Populated By Intimidating and Capacious Buildings Are The Urban Setting of Today. It Looks More Like a Construction Site Than Architecture?
It is important that architecture connects to its context. Not understanding the context makes ‘architecture’ just only ‘building’.
7. Could The Height of a Building Become a Standard To Distinguish Social Hierarchy?
In our time, not competition for impact of form but harmony with environment becomes a standard.
8. Recent Architecture Seldom Feels As If Is Built Not for the People but for the City’s Aesthetic. People Should Come First, And It Should Be Architecture for the People, However It Seems More like the Space is Built and People Are Forced into That Space. The Reason Why I wanted to Interview You Was Because You Seemed like a Person Who Would Pursue Humanism Architecture. Shaw I Understand Your Architecture as Humanish Architecture?
We always attach importance to dialogue. Dialogue makes projects better.
9. Architecture Environment in Japan Seems to be a lot different From That in Korea, Is There an Architecture Style That is Spot-Lighted Currently in Japan ?
there are so many architecture styles. Many of them are interested in sustainability.
10. What is The Definition of Architecture If you May.
Architecture is not just only building but the whole landscape including all environment of the building.
11. In This Modern Setting, What Would be a Healthy Architecture?
Healthy architecture connects to environment and nature, is built as a part of landscape, utilizing local materials and local building techniques, where we always feel nature.
12. Lastly, Are you an Architecture Who Follows Current Trends, or Are you an Architecture Who Creates Newness with Your Own Will, Regardless of Current Trends?
I am not interested in current trends. More important thing is how new space, new value of lifestyle can be created.
