Facet Studio has a <a href="http://facetstudio.com.au/" target="_blank">new website</a>!<br />
<a href="http://facetstudio.com.au/blog" target="_blank">Our blog</a> has also moved...<br />
<br />
We have made it easier to navigate, with better / bigger images, more helpful to our work, and moved the blog in together so you only need to visit one place.<br />
<br />
We hope you like our new look on the internet – enjoy!Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6532109561562608040.post-33190535791707203962015-03-20T10:29:00.000+11:002015-03-21T01:16:09.205+11:00Doshisha obtained Occupational Certificate!During the past week there have been several authority inspections and defect inspection from us happening at Doshisha.<br />
We have successfully obtained Occupational Certificate from Kyoto Council on MAR 19 - this formally marks the completion milestone of the project.<br />
<br />
What is now left are documentation of as-built building for record purpose, and finalising paperwork with Doshisha University.... a little bit of breather after the climax va-va-voom.<br />
<br />
A glimpse of the past few days:<br />

I was asked the question at an interview: "How do you feel when the finished project looks different from your design?" <br />
My answer was: "But it always looks just like how we designed! That is the reason we are involved, to build what we designed, what we promised; we don't design something that can not be built. And that feels great to see it coming to life."</td></tr>

<br />
Little gestures like taking shoes off rather than stumping around in construction boots, paying attention to small areas without being told to.. I found those very touching, and it is not cultural but rather universal. Of course there is the less romantic take of "dun wanna scratch da paint off" but that is no fun is it.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://facetstudio.blogspot.com.au/search/label/Doshisha%20Chapel" target="_blank">Doshisha</a> is in the 13th month from its construction commencement. Unbelievable.<br />

<br />
Wu-Gu was featured on Daily Telegraph on Sunday (for their delicious food), with interesting description of the space:<br />
<br />
.<i>..the fitout is Chinese tea house gone high-rise .... not a fussy space...</i><br />
<br />
We are never into the "fussy" kind of design so it is not to my surprise, but the tea house (and culture specific) is quite an interesting association which I do not dislike. It is one which is quiet, serene, almost meditative, but with sweet smell in the air and warmth to the touch of fingertips.<br />

<div>
It was opened to family and friends on FEB 15, one fine Sunday afternoon.</div>
<div>
Soft opening to public was on FEB 17 evening.</div>

<div>
Despite the obstacles, the space was filled with a crisp joy.</div>
<div>
It was one of those moments - the "never been happier for not giving up" moment.</div>

<div>
Now the project is coming closer to wrap up, a lot of the hardwork in the process is evident. It is so nice to see things coming together.</div>
<div>

<div>
Take this little toilet window as one example.</div>

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">close up of window.<br />
top and bottom of the window fall in line with the tiles, and there is no tiny off-cut tiles to left and right of the window; it is of course designed to happen this way, not accidental.</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div>
The process has roughly been:</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
1. internal planning to determine window location - Architect </div>
<div>
2. determine exhaust location and dimension - Architect + Mechanical </div>
<div>
3. determine window sizing - Architect + Structural</div>
<div>
4. determine surrounding finishing detail - Architect + Supplier</div>
<div>
5. custom tile design and tile setout - Architect + Supplier</div>
<div>
6. fine-tuning of window location to better suit tile setout - Architect + Structural</div>
<div>
7. concrete structure with adequate spacing for necessary window framing parts - Architect + Supplier + Contractor</div>
<div>
8. steel reinforcement and concrete pouring - Architect + Contractor</div>
<div>
9. opening framing - Architect + Contractor</div>
<div>
10. window installation - Architect + Supplier + Contractor</div>
<div>
11. exhaust system installation - Architect + Supplier + Contractor</div>
<div>
12. tiling - Architect + Contractor</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Architect's involvement is not about physically holding the power tool and building something (a common public misconception resulted from reality TV shows..) but to maintain a perspective of the whole project and to ensure each step along the way is carried out to enable the next step to occur according to plan.</div>
<div>
Especially when multiple parties (various engineers and trades) are involved, coordination becomes vital as miscommunication is source of disaster.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
... And of course there are many more windows and doors and you-name-it to make sure the building functions... </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
It is not about the window itself, but about incorporating functional elements in design without distracting the design intension.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
It is always about the big picture.</div>

Now we are seeing light at end of tunnel, at last.<br />
<br />
Some lessons I have learnt to date are:<br />
1.<br />
Contract is a formal documentation of human relationships.<br />
Contractual arrangements between all parties (including and definitely not limiting to leasing contract between client and his/ her landlord) have direct impact on people's mentality, which directly influence people's attitude, performance and reliability. <br />
2.<br />
Amount of time spent =/= quality of outcome.<br />
3.<br />
(reinforced) Persistence.<br />
<br />
Anyway, let's do look at some nice site photos!<br />
<br />

<br />
After a very long wrestle with Council (like, 4 years) albeit strong support from Council Heritage Advisor, we have finally received Development Application approval for the entire site of <a href="http://facetstudio.blogspot.com.au/search/label/seatondale" target="_blank">Seatondale</a>.<br />
We received the agreed and registered DA conditions on 2014 DEC 22, I was too overjoyed I didn't know how to respond. It is only starting to feel real for me now.<br />
<br />
Through this long and draining process we have developed a very strong bond with the client and his family, with a deep understanding of the design philosophy and unsurpassable persistence. Without their support it would have been a very lonely road.<br />
<br />
For some design background you can refer to the first post <a href="http://facetstudio.blogspot.com.au/2010/12/introducing-seatondale.html" target="_blank">HERE</a>.<br />
In the mean time we have also worked on interior of the Seatondale heritage house <a href="http://facetstudio.blogspot.com.au/2012/01/seatondale-calm.html" target="_blank">HERE</a>, <a href="http://facetstudio.blogspot.com.au/2012/01/painting-and-patching-and-painting.html" target="_blank">HERE</a>, <a href="http://facetstudio.blogspot.com.au/2012/02/let-there-be-light.html" target="_blank">HERE</a>, <a href="http://facetstudio.blogspot.com.au/2012/02/let-there-be-light-2.html" target="_blank">HERE</a> and <a href="http://facetstudio.blogspot.com.au/2012/01/first-step-from-being-construction-site.html" target="_blank">HERE</a><br />

It is important for us to respect the view the Seatondale heritage house once enjoyed.<br />Extensive studies have been devoted to the overlooking, overshadowing, landscaping and visual connections in order to achieve a blurred balance of architecture and landscape, ensuring a harmonised coexistence of openness and privacy amongst the 3 dwellings.</td></tr>

<br />
Majority of the fitout was flatpacked and assembled off-site, to work in parallel with the site work in order to reduce amount of time required.<br />
<br />
The entire off-site process has taken almost as long as the site work to date, which means, without off-site construction planned into the design, the construction time could have been doubled.<br />
<br />
Snap shots at the off-site "assembly line" over the past weeks...<br />

<br />
Being within a building built in 1920, there were myriads of unforeseeable issues we had to confront and resolve as they surface from behind almost century-old plasters and floor boards, but it was nice to say, the calmness of the space at the end of the chaos was well worth the pain!<br />
<br />
The Meudon apartment project is largely about spatial layering / sense of space beyond space - how that creates ambiguity in boundary hence brings comfort to people being inside the space. Need to think of a succinct expression to explain *mental note*.<br />
<br />
We organised for photoshoot on DEC 05, early 7am start to capture morning sun.<br />
The entire week was forecasted to thunderstorm, luckily we did get some good sun on the day!<br />
<br />
I found photographer <a href="http://www.robertwalsh.com.au/" target="_blank">Robert Walsh</a> for the shoot this time for the sense of extension / expanse of space in his work. It is important to capture the spatial layering we sense physically in the photos, and I very much look forward to seeing the result.<br />
<br />
This time we have also called in our friend Justin Fox from <a href="http://www.australianinfront.com.au/" target="_blank">Australian Infront</a> (huge "Thank you!") to capture some "behind the scene" photos - now that was a first for us! Check out his blog entry <a href="http://www.justinfox.com.au/nanamis-mums-apartment-by-facet-studio" target="_blank">HERE</a>.<br />
<br />
In the mean time, here are some photos from Justin on the day:<br />

<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
It was a 4am start, in order to minimise any disturbance to neighbours. </div>
<div>
We were starting on building the mezzanine structure to the soon-to-be restaurant first. <br />
Because almost all the intertenancy walls are not structural, the mezzanine is cantilevered on all sides from concrete columns with some help of couple of new steel columns. As the result the steel members are rather oversized, very heavy to transport indeed.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
By end of Day 1, we had most of the mezzanine bones up - hooray~~!</div>

There is a silent cheerfulness in the air now that <a href="http://facetstudio.blogspot.com.au/2014/09/day-3-what-happened.html" target="_blank">construction dusts</a> have all settled at last, light and air freely circulate in the spacious apartment, finally the space is taking the shape of what we have originally imagined.<br />
<br />
This is probably one of those exciting moments of all things - almost there but not quite, full of anticipation and hope.. of course this excitement is only to be surpassed by the even-more-exciting project completion!<br />

<br />
On the weekend it was <a href="http://facetstudio.blogspot.com.au/2010/11/sydney-open-2010.html" target="_blank">Sydney Open</a>, with 50+ Sydney's best loved buildings opening their doors for people. During these 2 weeks there are numerous architectural talks, exhibitions, activities for anyone and everyone interested in architecture.<br />
<br />
I went to see the "<a href="http://www.sydneyarchitecturefestival.org/component/option,com_events/Itemid,109/agid,14004/task,view_detail/" target="_blank">Behind the Lens</a>" photographic exhibition. Our work <a href="http://facetstudio.blogspot.com.au/search/label/Sneakerology" target="_blank">Sneakerology</a> was included in the exhibition by photographer Katherine Lu. Beautiful photography works of Opera House, Apple Store, Sydney architecture / cityscape and more are also on exhibition by 5 of the Sydney architectural photographers.<br />
<br />

<br />
It is published this time by Index Book from Barcelona, Spain as one of the "...projects that represent the forefront of retail design".<br />
<br />
I sometimes wonder what defines Architecture. <br />
At this moment, for me, it is about "timelessness".<br />
<br />
Maybe Sneakerology is on its way to becoming Architecture...<br />

<br />
The ceiling is consisted of a cross-hatch screen of different sized timber battens. This screen conceals services behind, assists with acoustic reverberation time, and allows access for maintenance.<br />
<br />
Here is the mock-up panel of the ceiling screen in our Kyoto site office.<br />
