The convenience store (konbini), simultaneously small and pervasive, provides order to the city (ichi) and allows the separation of living and working. Here in the Konbiniichi, amenities are compacted into a 3-foot zone on the front facade of the building, simultaneously small and pervasive, facilitating the mix of living and working. The live-work building, tasked with creating a new urbanity in the suburbs, utilizes three urban conditions found in Tokyo: building as street wall, the gate, and signage. The street wall and gate provide the basis for the urban form while signage is reinterpreted on the facade as the expression of the amenity functions. Each amenity (laundry, gym equipment, communal kitchen, dining, etc) is color-coded and placed at an interval which allows them to be easily seen and accessed from any point in the building. This collection of amenities along the street edge creates an internal street condition as a place for chance gatherings and interactions between workers and residents. The facade provides an order which dissipates further away until a new order of terraces emerges on the back of the building looking over a new park and residential complex.
