沖縄北部に位置する備瀬は海に面しており、美ら海水族館からも徒歩圏内で
観光客も多く集まる魅力的な地域でノスタルジックな沖縄の空気が感じられ、周囲には雰囲気の良いカフェなどが点在しています。
散策やレンタサイクルでの観光を楽しみつつ、自然を感じながらゆっくり過ごせる沖縄随一の場所でもあります。
今回の計画地はフクギ並木より徒歩10分と観光客がほとんど来ないプライバシーが守られ静かな場所に位置し、自然を感じながらゆったりとした時を過ごしたい方にはお勧めの場所です。
扇形の建物の外側にはフクギ、内側には空に抜けるプールを配置し、どこにいてもフクギと空のAOが感じられ、プライバシーに配慮しつつ、枝葉が風で靡く音や雨音が壁で反響して、ここでしか感じられない五感を刺激する空間となっております。
各棟それぞれ異なった方位にフクギを望む窓があるので、光の感じ方や木漏れ日などが全て違う表情を見せる。
フクギに囲われた敷地内は風も心地よく年中過ごしやすい為、ヴィラ内は自然が感じられるように外部空間を通って、各居場所へアプローチしている。
また、テラスを半階上げスキップフロアにする事で地面からの視線とは異なった伸びやかな空間となり、フクギの木々に近づいていくような感覚になる。
大きな屋根に覆われたテラスは天候に左右されずBBQやサウナの整い空間として様々なアクティビティを楽しむことが出来る仕様となっており、夜には満点の星空を望める非日常的な空間が広がっています。
また、雨水を効率的に集める為、屋根を片流れの一枚の大きな曲面にして雨水が外側に逃げないよう配慮した形状としております。
受けた雨水をテラス下に溜めてプールの水として再利用し、災害時には地域にも開放することで環境だけでなく地域にも配慮したヴィラとしています。
先人達によって守られてきたフクギを継承し、備瀬の魅力を最大限に活かしたAO BISE 優雅な時間を自然と共に。
Furthermore, recognizing Okinawa’s limited supply of water, we’ve integrated rainwater collection with advanced filtration, creating a building that has a solid foundation in the local community while also minimizing the environmental impact of water usage, whether for pools or emergency preparedness.
Bise, in northern Okinawa, faces the sea and is within walking distance of Churaumi Aquarium.
It is a famous place where many tourists gather together, and you can sense the nostalgic soul of Okinawa. There are cafes with pleasant atmosphere scattered around the region.
It is also one of Okinawa’s best spots to relax and appreciate nature while sightseeing on foot or by bicycle.
The proposed site is a 10-minute walk from Fukugi Namiki in a peaceful and private area with less tourists, making it an ideal place for individuals looking for an opportunity to unwind in nature.
The fan-shaped building is surrounded by Fukugi trees outside and features an open-air pool inside, creating an atmosphere where you can constantly sense the presence of both the Fukugi and the sky. When privacy is desired, the sound of wind rustling through branches and leaves, and rain tapping against the walls, offers a peaceful background. This space is designed to engage and stimulate all five senses in ways unique to its location.
Each building has windows that face Fukugi trees in various directions, thus the way light interacts and sunlight filters through the greenery gives each building with a distinct appearance.
The premises, surrounded by Fukugi trees, have a delightful breeze and provide year-round comfort, making it an ideal space to spend time in. Consequently, the villa’s interior is accessible through the outdoor space, offering a seamless connection with nature.
In addition, by lifting the terrace half a level and making it a skip floor, it becomes a spacious place that contrasts from the view from the ground, creating the illusion of approaching the Fukugi trees.
The terrace, which is covered by a wide roof, is intended to be a space where you can enjoy various activities such as BBQ and sauna regardless of the weather, and at night it transforms into an amazing space where you are able to observe the stars.
Moreover, in order to collect rainwater efficiently, the roof features a single big curving surface with one side slope that prevents rainfall from escaping to the surface. Rainwater is collected under the roof and utilized as pool water, which is subsequently released to the neighborhood residents in the event of a disaster, showing that the villa takes care not just of the environment but also of the local people.
AO BISE proudly continues the rich legacy of Fukugi passed down by our ancestors, all while embracing the inherent charm of Bise. Immerse yourself in the beauty of nature and indulge in some truly delightful moments. Experience our villa, where sunlight gracefully dances through the forest, inviting you to indulge in its warmth and serenity.
