The Nibankan (phase 2) is located at the end of a lush green and quiet streetscape facing the phase 1 building completed the previous year. Japan's society has become super-aged, and the elderly population is expected to increase further over the next decade. On the other hand, homes for seniors prioritize nursing and assisted living, tending to be much more privacy-conscious and closed institutions. This results in the care homes becoming alienated from the community. We propose a new type of senior residence where seniors can maintain contact with the locality while living comfortably until the end of their lives, preserving their dignity.
The salons and lounges were planned to face the street, be open to the outside, and be conscious of the exterior design, creating a physical face and symbolic focal point for the property within the streetscape. Adjusting the distance from the neighborhood makes it possible for the residents to actively participate in society by involving neighbors. The dining room on the north side is accessible from the street via a terrace while living rooms to the bathrooms gradually increase in distance from the city.
Rich and varied community spaces are throughout the building. The sunlight pouring through the skylight of the three-story atrium connected to the grand entrance staircase creates an outdoor atmosphere. Gravity ventilation allows you to feel the natural breeze in common spaces and corridors. These naturally lit and ventilated spaces blur the distinction between the interior and exterior environment, creating a comfortable connection to the outside for residents while reducing the environmental burden of the building. In the private living space, we planned 22 varieties of rooms ranging from 20 to 80 sq.m. to provide diversity. The rooms and the building are designed with accessible circulation routes for wheelchair use and ease of nursing.
