PAPER LOG HOUSE - Turkey / 紙のログハウス - トルコ-2000
Turkey / トルコ
2000
Based on the shelter in Kobe, Japan, some improvements were applied to fit in with the environment in Turkey. One unit, for example,was 3 x 6m, a different and slightly larger configuration, which was due to the standard size of plywood in Turkey and also to the country’s larger average family size. Secondly, there was more insulation. Shredded wastepaper was inserted inside the tubes along the walls and fiberglass in the ceiling,
and also cardboard and plastic sheets were used for more insulation, depending the resident’s needs.
1999年にトルコの北西部を襲った大地震によって、8万人の人々が家を失った。地域のボランティア団体と協力して建てたこのログハウスは、神戸版をもとに被災地の天候や生活様式に合うように改良している。家族の人数に合わせてサイズを大きくしたり、寒冷地用に紙管の中に紙くずを入れて断熱性能を高めるなどの変更を地元建築家と行った。
