Stones for Glampool at Hilton Fukuoka, 2018

浮遊するテントを作りだす路傍の石たち

天井から吊られ、床側に一切の支持材があらわれないテント。サスペンション膜構造の応用であり、下方への引っ張りが必要な部分に「おもり」を吊るし、重力によって曲面をつくりだしている。

研究室ではこの「おもり」の制作を行った。手頃な石を道端や河原で集め、耐食性の高い糸で編み込んだ網のなかに入れている。

The project is a renovation of the indoor pool at the Hilton Fukuoka Sea Hawk Hotel. The design concept is "Glampool", where "glamping" and "night pool" are combined. For this, we proposed a space in which tents float.

Tents are suspended from the ceiling, without any supports and tie-cables onto the floor. Counterweights are hung on the corners of the tents, therefore the gravity creates a complex curved surface. Counterweights are made of stones from the streets and riversides in Fukuoka, wrapped in a net. This weight is designed and produced by Iwamoto Laboratory.
