Little Hilltop with Wind View  by Shingo Masuda and Katsuhisa Otsubo

„ This project is a request from a wind power company to build a tower that could look over “a view with a windmill” on the hill of a wind-farm in Shimonoseki city, Yamaguchi prefecture. We found a panoramic view of windmills on our first visit at the site. We, therefore, decided to plan a “wind” that bring together windmills, grass, flowers, clouds, and all other elements, instead of building something for viewing. We felt that this was the real intention of the project, and motivated us to propose such plan.
   We made a planting swaying in the wind near the hill, constructed a platform, “flowing architecture” that bends and flows naturally with the power of the wind, and designed a scenery with windmills and clouds.”

Ghost-like architecture” by Shingo Masuda and Katsuhisa Otsubo

„  The site is a threshold of house, street, garden, and neighbor.
   We judged that it would be effective to design a boundary that could constantly renew and rewrite the interpretation in our consciousness each time they involve the site, of a garden being a house, a house being a neighbor, a garden being a street and so on - without restricting sites.
   We tried to create an inconsistence between physical and visual experience of “boundary” to individuals, according to the state, by constructing an ambivalent “ghost-like architecture” that emerge and dissolve simultaneously. The boundary, which creates the interpretation of the scene or the crossing of awareness, becomes the new borderline that circulates inside the consciousness, which will not belong to any or all domains.”
