该项目始于2005年，是拓宽230国道的计划的一部分，这是一条贯穿基诺贝苏市中心的国道。该镇向我们提供了一处供我们建造拟议建筑的地点，停车场、厕所和旅游办公室由当地市政府管理。建筑和商业业务是由私营公司进行的。

This project began in 2005 as part of a plan to widen Route 230, a national highway that runs right through the center of Kimobetsu. The town offered us the use of a site for our proposed building, with the carpark, toilets and tourist office managed by the local municipal government. Construction and business operations were undertaken by private corporations.

在项目开始的同时，在Kimobetsu启动了一个城市规划委员会，我们从一开始就加入了这个委员会。

A town planning committee was launched in Kimobetsu at the same time that the project was getting started, which we joined from the outset.

规划这个公路服务中心所涉及的问题之一是如何预测它在过往交通中的存在。我们对建筑形式进行了仔细、反复的研究，这些形式适合当地的位置，以及中心将如何作为当地的地标，最终决定建筑本身应该作为一种招牌。

One of the issues involved in planning this highway service center was how to project its presence in relation to the passing traffic. We made careful, repeated studies of building forms that would be appropriate to the location as well as how the center would serve as a local landmark, finally deciding that the architecture itself ought to serve as a kind of signboard.

尽管整栋建筑的设计形式包含了多种含义，但该设施的形状所依据的主题实际上隐藏在峡谷和峡谷的景观中，南部是Shiribetsu山，西边是Yotei山。

Although the completed form of the building was designed to incorporate multiple meanings within it, the motif on which the shape of the facility was based is in fact concealed within the landscape of ravines and gorges, with Mount Shiribetsu to the south and Mount Yotei to the west.

虽然建筑周围的壮丽景色可能会让人想起一个郁郁葱葱的夏日，但北海道的这部分地区却能看到长达半年的漫长冬天。由树叶掉落的各种树木组成的黑带，是温暖月份被遮掩的广阔土地的赤裸裸的表现。结构上的起伏，再加上黑色波段的颜色分级，与远处白雪覆盖的田野形成对比，创造了抽象的视觉效果。

While the magnificent scenery that surrounds the building may bring to mind a lush, green summer season, this part of Hokkaido actually sees long winters that last for almost half the year. The black band made up of various trees whose leaves have fallen is a bare expression of the vast land that is obscured during the warmer months. Undulations in the structure, combined with color gradations in the black band and the contrast with the white snow-covered fields in the distance, create an abstract visual effect.

当这座建筑的建筑形式首次出现在我们的研究过程中时，我们感觉到，从我们记忆的深处，似乎出现了一幅关于日本北部原始冬季景观的景象。

When the architectural form of the building first emerged over the course of our studies, we felt as if a vision of the pristine winter landscapes of northern Japan had surfaced from the depths of our memory.

有了GR 230，我们创造了一个美丽的建筑，在树叶茂盛的夏季，它拥有庄严的存在，在漫长而隐居的冬天，它似乎溶入了周围的风景。

With GR230, we have created a beautiful piece of architecture that commands a dignified presence during the foliage-rich summer months, and a quieter one that seemingly dissolves into the surrounding landscape during the long, reclusive winters.
