我々が日々生活を送っている住居には、寝室、トイレ、台所、居間など住手に最低限必要な機能があるはずです。都会で暮らす場合は、近年の様々なサービス産業のおかげで、自宅に風呂や台所がなくても不自由しないで暮らせるようになっていますね。
ところで人間の生活の中で何が一番大切でしょうか。煎じ詰めて考えてみると最後に残るのは、睡眠を取ることだと思います。「住居のコアは寝室」です。
sleep for humans and architecture
A critical thinking in architectural field about daily lives of humans might give the fact that the most important activity of humans is sleeping. There are several reasons. When we look at our life spaces, they are coloured by private sense and public sense. The deepest private zone must be the place for sleeping. On the other hand our average time of sleep may be around 8 hours. We have 24 hours and spend 1/3 a day for sleep. In this sense we sleep for 1/3 of our lifetime. Sleeping is a special and a holy job for us. Then how does this truth effect an architecture? What kind of possibility does an architecture have in terms of sleeping?
