Concept

As the site faces a beautifully landscaped city street, we respected the continuity of the street landscape by making the form of the building similar to the Hamaya-zukuri style along the street, and planned to naturally guide the eye from the approach to the courthouse at the rear of the site. This makes the courthouse, an unusual space, was designed to be integrated with the local community without disturbing the local atmosphere. As a courthouse located in the traditional town of Wajima, the exterior of the courthouse expresses the order and solidarity of the community.
