"The architectural concept is defined by a circular structure partially embedded into the ground, covered by a large, sheltering roof that extends outward to frame views of the sea."
"At the center of the project lies a 200-square-meter circular basin that organizes both the spatial and experiential core of the building, oriented toward the horizon."
"The installation consists of 3,000 LED counters floating across the surface of the basin, each programmed to cycle through numbers from 1 to 9 at intervals defined by individual participants."
"This approach reflects Tane's broader design methodology, which prioritizes the integration of built form with site-specific narratives, allowing the architecture to emerge as a spatial interpretation of place."
Sea of Time - TOHOKU is an art and architecture project in Tomioka, Fukushima, designed by Tsuyoshi Tane and Tatsuo Miyajima. The project, under development from 2024 to 2027, features a circular structure embedded in the ground with a large roof that frames ocean views. A central 200-square-meter basin organizes the space, enhancing the relationship between architecture and the landscape. The installation includes 3,000 LED counters, reflecting Miyajima's artistic practice while being integrated into the architectural design.
