组成社会的最小单位，这是由两位业主共同主持的办公室改造工程。这种两个人共享时间的空间可以说是社会上最小的空间单位。当它需要两个个性和欲望在一个空间，我们创造了一个单位空间充满了许多选择。这间办公室占地28平方米，但分片精细，创造了许多地方。如果是这样的话，我们的目标是与分离有关的状态，而在有地方的地方有个性。我们扩大了小地方和整体，也取得了适当的平衡。

The smallest unit constituting society This is a renovation project of the office presided over by the two co-owners. This space where two people share their time can be said to be the smallest spatial unit in society. Where it required two personalities and desires in one space, we created a unit space filled with many options. The office is a small space of 28 square meters, but it is finely segmented, creating a number of places. If that is the case, while having a personality where there is a place, we aim at the state related to separation. We expanded the small place and the whole, and also made the appropriate balance.

被另一个人打断，随着现有空间的拆除，有许多发现。上层的设施轴水平和垂直穿过1F的办公室。需要定期读数和检查的部分，如整个建筑物中的水表和污水池，位于一楼。这源于最初由原来的建筑所建立的，但1F租户必须承担整个建筑的共享空间。因此，我们认为积极承担这种在过去40年中逐渐积累的[扭曲]行为。两个办公空间被设置为楼层中心的核心，并发空间成为一个允许其他人中断的地方。尽可能地保留可接受的东西，而由环境、历史和结构方面引起的不可接受的[扭曲]是由核心以外的剩余空间承担的。由于共用水表和污水池的残存，我们把这个多余的空间定义为“街道”，并考虑到公共空间，这是一个非常私人的区域。

Interruption by another person Along with the dismantling of the existing space, there were many findings. The facility shaft on the upper floor passes through the office of 1F horizontally and vertically. Parts that require periodic meter readings and inspections, such as the water meters and sewage basins in the entire building, are located in the first floor. This originates from what was initially established by the original building, but the 1F tenant must undertake the share spaces of the entire building. So, we thought to actively undertake such [distortion] that gradually accumulated in the past 40 years. The two office spaces are set as the core in the center of the floor, and the concurrent space becomes a place that allows others to interrupt. Acceptable things are kept as much as possible, and unacceptable [distortion] arising from environmental, historical and structural aspects is undertaken by surplus space other than core. As a shared water meter and a sewage basin remain, we defined this surplus space as “street” and thought about the public space, which is in a very private area.

在日本，“街头”是一种在隐私和宣传之间进行调解的方式，它补充了人们日常活动的场所。也可以说，“街”在国外起到了“广场”的作用。在这个项目中，我们在外观上设置了五个开口，这是面向外部的额外空间。它是一个极小的开口，它自发地产生事物和事件的流动，而不产生一个特定的开口。这条中等连续性的街道有一定的用途(厨房、画廊、会议空间、图书馆等)，但通过这一开放，有可能改变为有不同的含义。通过同等地对待这种分裂和联系，我们的目标是一个逐渐使私人和公共之间进行调解的空间。

A way to mediate between privacy and publicity In Japan, “street” complemented the place of people's daily activities. It can also be said that “street” has played the role of “square” in foreign countries. In this project, we set five openings in the facade which is additional space facing the outside. It is a minimal opening that spontaneously produces the flow of things and events without creating one specific opening. This moderately continuous street has certain uses (Kitchen, Gallery, Meeting Space, Library etc.), but through this opening there is a possibility of changing to have different meanings. By treating the division and linkage equivalently, we aimed at a space that gradually mediates private and public.
