The Goto islands, Japan, have seen a continuous decrease in population which has caused a disappearance of local tectonics and abandonment of homes. The “(PLACE) MAKERS’ HOME” is a living and work space for makers visiting from abroad. This project creates the preconditions for makers to develop and transform empty houses through the fusion of local and outside tectonics and production cultures.
The (PLACE) MAKERS' HOME consists of a main building and a smaller building. The main building consists of two workshops and living spaces for three makers including a living room which serves as a common space for makers and local residents. The smaller building consists of one workshop and one guest room.
Plans
The living room is open to the public. The living room is surrounded by in-between spaces. These served to facilitate communication between local residents and makers. The house is constructed using simple wooden joints, which can be made by local residents. Some elements of the house are made using local tectonics.
It is a prototype for transforming empty houses in town.

Sections
The corridors are used by both makers and local residents. Engawa, which is an inside terrace, surround the living room. They are elevated 40 cm off the ground. People can sit on the outside under overhanging roofs. The other two corridors can be converted into workshop space by opening the workshop doors. The floors of the corridor are terrazzo for ease of cleaning.
Corridors
The wood workshop has two different ceiling heights. The height recedes from one end of the workshop to the other, to allow for the work on large materials and to do finishing work after processing the materials into smaller pieces.
The windows are arched wooden constructions, using the same local tectonic inspired by local churches.

Wood workshop
Plaster workshop has an arched ceiling using local tectonics, again inspired by local churches. The window bays are deep and the sills can be used as shelves. To support the windows on the outside, there are decorative cornices made from plaster.
