Parklet Miyagi

By : Atelier mock/up + Quinzhee architecture

GRANDS PRIX DU DESIGN – 14th edition

Discipline : Urban Design, Landscape Architecture & Landscaping

Categories : Landscape Architecture / Parkland / Street Terrace : Platinum Winner

Categories : Special Awards / Wood Featured in Landscaping Project

Design:

This unusual installation grew out of the desire of the Miyagi’s owners to expand their restaurant’s terrace in a unique way by occupying the parking space available in front of their business. From the very start of the design process, #teamquinzhee has partnered up with atelier mock/up which specializes in parametric conception and digital fabrication in order to transcend the limits of the project.


Inspired by the bistro’s identity and the rice terraces, the parklet catches the eye of the passers-by with its multiple openwork plans in organic and sinuous shapes while letting light through. The large bar runs the entire length of the facility and crisscrosses the massive black volume of the rice fields, creating different areas of intimacy between the twenty or so guests who can sit there.


On the side of the street, the parklet’s relief punctuated with vegetation, attempt to dynamize the urban landscape. Finally, from a further distance, the whole reveals its lightness despite its black color and its presence thanks to the play of solids and voids created by the spaces left between its horizontal elements.


Fabrication:

The realization of the project takes advantage of the laminated wood qualities combined with the advantages of parametric design and digital manufacturing. A very short completion time prompted the team to choose this approach.
