半筑OR咖啡馆和公厕是位于大阪历史公园内的一处小品,由一个咖啡厅和一个公共厕所围合出中央庭院。圆形的平面布局使这座建筑从各个方向都很容易进入。为了保证观赏城堡及其周围自然景观的视线,建筑的层高很低。从咖啡厅的玻璃外墙可以看到城堡周围的护城河,厕所外墙则使用搪瓷材料。建筑的屋顶使用了19mm的耐火钢板,并由3个直径70mm的斜柱支撑。这种倾斜屋顶的设计好像是在对抗地心引力。屋顶的斜度经过精心计算恰好可以将雨水排入收集器。这一设计巧妙地利用了自然的力量(如地心引力),而不是以传统的方式抗拒这一力量。大部分建筑都在抵抗自然的力量,然而这座新建筑却另辟 Semi-OR cafe and public toilets are a sketch in Osaka’s historic park surrounded by a cafe and a public toilet. The circular floor plan makes the building easy to access from all directions. In order to guarantee the view of the castle and the surrounding natural landscape, the height of the building is very low. The moat around the castle can be seen from the glass facade of the cafe, while enamel is used on the exterior of the toilet. The roof of the building uses a 19mm refractory steel and is supported by three diagonal columns of 70mm in diameter. This sloping roof design seems to oppose gravity. The careful calculation of the roof slope can drain the rainwater into the collector. This design cleverly uses the power of nature (such as gravity) rather than resist it in the traditional way. Most of the buildings are resisting the power of nature, yet the new building is different
