morinos - morinos 岐阜県立森林文化アカデミー 森林総合教育センター | Kengo Kuma and Associates

This is a facility for education programs to teach the multifaceted functions of forests. Workshops are repeatedly held with students of the academy under the lean-to roof with a large overhang which is supported by logs cut down from the forest in a V-shaped configuration, creating a very open space. One-hundred year old Japanese cypress logs in the research forest adjoining the academy were cut down by students majoring in Forestry studies, and used in combination with cedar planks that still have the bark on for the doorjambs and mullion for the openings. Therefore, the materials themselves are used in the design to teach forestry education. Earth from the site and earth from Gifu Prefecture were applied to the symbolic walls by Syuhei Hasado, a plasterer from the prefecture, in a process that resembles a 12-layered ceremonial kimono.

森林の多面的機能を伝える教育プログラムの拠点施設。アカデミーの学生とともにワークショップを重ね、大きく張り出した片流れ屋根を、森から伐り出したV字の丸太柱で支える開放的な構成に到達した。100年生ヒノキの丸太柱は、施設からつながるアカデミーの演習林から、林業専攻の学生達によって伐り出され、杉の樹皮をそのまま残した材を開口部の方立に用い、建物自体が森林教育の教材となるデザインとした。演習林の土や主に岐阜県内の土を、十二単のように塗り重ねた象徴的壁面は、岐阜の左官職人、挟土秀平による。
