GRAN LUXE 御所南

Located on a narrow flag-lot site just south of the Kyoto Imperial Palace, this project turns demanding site conditions into an asset. As the site falls within a designated aesthetic district under Kyoto's landscape ordinance—an area reserved for the traditional character of the old city—the design incorporates such Japanese elements as tile roofing and timber-toned louvers, while composing them into a contemporary expression defined by crisp horizontal and vertical lines. Fittingly for a flag-lot site, the entrance is conceived as a passage reminiscent of a Kyoto *roji*, or backstreet alley, framed by indirect lighting and wooden louvers. Although the individual units are irregular in plan, each is organized around a generous living-dining-kitchen space anchored by a large island, with the wet areas gathered into a compact, coherent zone. Interiors are grounded in a clean, luminous white, with accents of color and pattern placed throughout—lending individuality to spaces that remain, above all, refined.

【課題】
京都市の条例にて路地状敷地では様々な建築制限が設けられ、建築可能な範囲等が限られています。厳しい敷地条件をどのように生かすのかが本計画の大きな課題でした。 路地状敷地では接道長さが短くなりやすく、本計画地の形状では条例にて床面積を1000㎡未満に抑えなければなりません。建物形状の工夫にて限りある床面積の中で最大限占有面積を確保できるよう検討が必要です。 同時に採光も接道面から取入れるケースが多いため、間取りの配置にも要注意です。 京都市景観条例では旧市街地型美観地区に位置します。路地状敷地による建築制限に注意しつつ、隣接建物との外壁の連続性を生み出す必要があります。
