Abstract

The work of Atelier Bow-Wow has, over the last 29 years, turned to exploring what they call behaviorology: the full social and cultural effects of constructing architecture. Through collaborations with local craftsmen, wood specialists, timber management companies, house construction companies as well as architectural design studios in Japan and Switzerland they unlock the potentials of local timber networks. This interview with Momoyo Kaijima, founding partner of Atelier Bow-Wow, examines this aspect of their work, and places “timber behavoriology” in the context of an expanded scale of design: from forestry, to communities, to codes, to cultural history, to seismic details, and, somewhere in between, architecture.

摘要

在过去的 29 年里，Atelier Bow-Wow 的工作转向探索他们所谓的行为学：建造建筑的完整社会和文化影响。通过与当地工匠、木材专家、木材管理公司、房屋建筑公司以及日本和瑞士的建筑设计工作室合作，他们释放了当地木材网络的潜力。此次对 Atelier Bow-Wow 的创始合伙人 Momoyo Kaijima 的采访考察了他们工作的这一方面，并​​将“木材行为学”置于扩大设计范围的背景下：从林业到社区，到规范，再到文化历史，地震细节，以及介于两者之间的建筑。
