SHOEIZAN SENGYOJI
MASAHIRO HARADA ＋ MAO ／ MOUNT FUJI ARCHITECTS STUDIO
- Outline
- This is a reconstruction project of a temple built beside Minami-Ikebukuro Park (1607). The façade is intended to be seen as a single copper thatched roof surface when viewed from a distance through the greenery and when looked up at like a mountain. In spite of the narrow site in the center of the city, the building creates an expansive space by layering layers of pale boundaries from the outside: copper screens, plants, glass, drummed shoji screens and partitions.
