松の緑青に桜の薄桃色が映える官庁街通り。馬蹄モニュメント(カリヨン)がある桜の広場は、十和田市民の憩いの場。旧陸軍軍馬補充部三本木支部の跡地に植えられ、約1世紀の間まちを見守り続けてきた桜の古木。受け継がれてきた財産を活かしながら、今までにない総合施設ができました。それが、図書館と教育研修機能をあわせもつ「十和田市教育プラザ」です。設計は日本を代表する建築家、安藤忠雄氏。独学で建築を学び、数々の公共施設を設計してきました。「これからの地方都市の最重要課題は人材育成」という信念のもと、十和田の美しい自然と調和する“新しい教育の場”を提案しました。

施設内に5つ設けられたサンルームは、あえて目的を絞らない空間をつくることで、さまざまな人々が出会い、コミュニケーションするきっかけを用意しています。世代、立場、考え方を越えて対話するときに生まれる、気づきや感動。その“本ではない本”、活字にならない情報こそが、これからの時代に必要な「考える力」や、「尊重しあう心」を養う糧となる。建築家からのメッセージです。まちの未来をつくるのは、そこに住む人。子どもたちの健やかな成長はもちろん、市民それぞれが能力を花開かせ、いきいきと輝く生涯を送ることを、教育プラザは応援します。

A blissful moment when reading a favorite book sitting

on a bench beneath the light filtering through the

trees. What if you could feel the ultimate relaxation

and excitement of submerging yourself in the world of

books forever? The five sun-rooms are set up within

the Public Library and Education Training Center to

function as hubs of activity, spaces where visitors can

feel the energy of trees scattered throughout the site.

The space is filled with light and warmth even in

winter. People of all ages and generations gather here

for lively communication.

エントランスホールのサンルームは、入口は東西2か所。ベンチで飲食可能。夜はライトアップされ、ガラス屋根からもれる光が夜空をやわらかく照らす“まちの行灯”となる。The sun-room at the entrance hall has two entrances, one each in the east and west. You can eat and drink on the benches in the sun-room. It is lit up at night and the light filtering from the glass roof becomes the town's lantern that softly lights up the night sky.

Sunlight filters in through the glass windows that stretch high into the sky giving visitors a sense of freedom as if reading in the midst of nature.

Two multi-purpose training rooms are used as a place

of learning from a "book that is not a book." They are

used for training and meetings, but they are mostly

used for reading promotion events such as book

establish opportunities for direct and indirect learning

to support and nurture children who will be the ones

to create the future of the community.

排除も過剰な保護もせず、もともとある樹木をやさしく包み込むように展開する建築は、設計者・安藤忠雄氏が青森県南部の伝統工芸「南部裂織」から着想を得たもの。敷地にあるもの全てを価値ある風景と捉え、新たな要素を慎重に織り込んでゆくことで、“懐かしいけれど見たことがない”場所が生まれました。今あるものを活かし、今までにない価値を作る。十和田の先人たちの思いがここにも。

The structure was carefully built using the local

lumber, neither eliminating nor excessively protecting

what was there already. Designer Tadao Ando was

inspired by the traditional weaving craft, "Nanbu

Sakiori," from southern Aomori. Everything at the site

was seen as valued landscape, and the new elements

were meticulously woven into the scenery. Here is a

place that is "nostalgic but new." Make use of what

we have to create new value. Find the passion of the

predecessors of Towada.

Finely shredded old cloth is woven together with cotton thread to create clothes and other daily necessities. Using the thread from old cloth as weft yarn adds a unique texture. Sakiori expresses the thoughts of the people in the Towada region and has become an important source of inspiration for the designs of Mr. Ando.

排除も過剰な保護もせず、もともとある樹木をやさしく包み込むように展開する建築は、設計者・安藤忠雄氏が青森県南部の伝統工芸「南部裂織」から着想を得たもの。敷地にあるもの全てを価値ある風景と捉え、新たな要素を慎重に織り込んでゆくことで、“懐かしいけれど見たことがない”場所が生まれました。今あるものを活かし、今までにない価値を作る。十和田の先人たちの思いがここにも。

The structure was carefully built using the local

lumber, neither eliminating nor excessively protecting

what was there already. Designer Tadao Ando was

inspired by the traditional weaving craft, "Nanbu

Sakiori," from southern Aomori. Everything at the site

was seen as valued landscape, and the new elements

were meticulously woven into the scenery. Here is a

place that is "nostalgic but new." Make use of what

we have to create new value. Find the passion of the

predecessors of Towada.

教育研修センターでは、常駐の相談員が随時無料で子育て・教育の相談を受け付けています。開放的なサンルームは冬も暖かなプレイルームとして活用され、様々な 適応指導が行われています。

The Education Training Center offers consultation for child-rearing and education free of charge by resident counseling staff. Guidance is provided in a spacious sun-room that can be used as a playroom that is warm even in the winter.

既存樹を活かしたバリアフリー設計。桜並木に呼応するかのように低く流れる平屋建てで、3,000 ㎡を超える広大なコンクリート建造物でありながら圧迫感を感じさせない。官庁街通りのにぎわいに面する北側に2列の図書エリア、静かな公園に面する南側に教育研修エリアがほどよい距離感で配置される。

Barrier-free design making use of the existing trees. The low one-story building blends in with rows of cherry trees. This concrete structure is huge at over 3,000 m2, yet it does not feel overwhelming. The north side facing bustling Kanchogai Street houses the library area in two rows; and the south side facing a serene park is the education training area. They are positioned just the right distance apart.

エントランスホールや閲覧コーナー、読み聞かせ、作品展示など、館内に散らばったサンルームはさまざまな用途で活用されている。目的を定めない“遊び”のスペースを取り入れることで、利用者が自由に発想を広げる余地が生まれた。自身や他者とじっくり対話できる空間でもある。Sun-rooms scattered throughout the building are used for various purposes, such as an entrance hall, book area, reading room, and exhibition space. Setting up free space with no specific purpose offers visitors room for ideas. They are also spaces to think or communicate with others.

児童書コーナー最奥のサンルームを兼ねた空間。地域の読書団体による読み聞かせの会が定期開催されている。太陽光が柔らかく差し込み、寒い冬でも屋外で読書しているかのような開放感。ガラス扉で仕切られているので防音性もあり、元気な子どもたちの休憩場所や親子のふれあいの場として活用されている。

学習コーナーは48席。官庁街通りに面した閲覧席の一角に設けられている。主要通路から外れているため、開架スペースと一体でありながら人の出入りを気にすることなく集中できる空間。窓から差し込む優しい光と、半透明のパーテーションで明るさを取り込みつつ、1人の世界へ没頭。

馬産地として知られた十和田市では明治時代に「旧陸軍軍馬補充部三本木支部」が置かれ、戦後まで良質な軍馬を輩出。地域経済を支えた。教育プラザは当時の三本木支部敷地内に建設されており、中庭の桜の古木は昭和初期に植えられたもの。美しい桜は春の訪れを告げるとともに、“馬のまち”のおもかげをしのばせる。

Towada City was once known for horse breeding. During the Meiji Era (1868–1912), the former Sanbongi Branch of the Army Remounts Supply Division was established here. Outstanding remounts were raised here and supplied to the army until the end of the war. The Branch supported the regional economy. The Education Training Center is constructed on the site of the former Sanbongi Branch. In the center of the courtyard is an old cherry tree planted in the early Showa Period (around 1930). Beautiful cherry blossoms announce the arrival of spring and remind us that it had once been a "Horse Town."

Kanchogai Street. The area is slightly off the main passageway, and while it is connected to an open-shelf space, visitors can concentrate on their studies without interruption from the movement of others. Visitors can shut out the outside world to find solitude behind the semi-transparent partition, under the gentle light filtering in from the window.

This space is at the far end of the Children's Books area, and is also used as sun-room. Story Hours are held regularly by local reading groups. Sunlight softly seeps into the room to give it the pleasant atmosphere of reading outside even on a cold winters' day. The area is partitioned by a soundproof glass door, allowing energetic children to move around freely and parents to read to them.
