Location: Akita, Japan Yunoeki Oyu in Japan by Kengo Kuma and AssociatesWednesday, April 10th, 2019Article source: Kengo Kuma and Associates Oyu onsen is a famous hot spring in Kazuno, Akita. We designed a community center here incorporating a shop, café, open-air theater, park, footbath, and biotope under one large roof. In order to create a dynamic space which varies according to the diverse programs, we referred to mage wappa, a round lunch basket made of thin wood, a traditional craft in Akita’s. Cylinders of LVL (laminated veneer lumber) reference mage wappa and comprise the structure of the building. The assemblage of those rings then functions not only as a transparent structure but also as a partition or a shelf when needed.  Image Courtesy © Kengo Kuma and Associates
