厚生年金

旧厚生年金病院は山田守の名作で1932年に生まれ、世紀の代わり目頃まで現存していた。祖母が入院し、見舞った時のあの透明感のあるランプを思い出す。日建の隣りにあった割にはあまり利用しなかったのは父親の縁があった三楽病院に行くことが多かったからである(母は三楽で生まれ三楽で息を引き取った)。

新厚生年金も山田守事務所の設計で、2000年に竣工。その後運営母体の改組で名前が変わり、JCHO東京メディカルセンターとなった。バブル期の合併改名に多くある長い名前は心に残らないがその意味するところは地域医療機能推進機構で今回の「みみ・はな•のど神楽坂クリニック」の女医の的確な指示とコロナの最中、即受けてくれたこの連携プレーに施設コンセプトを実感した。ちなみにこのJCHOの理事長はあの尾身会長である。

一昨年、近所にあるこの病院は配偶者との散歩コースで真っ白な山田流曲線が交差点のアクセントになっていると感じた。しかし完成後20年の老朽化は隠せない。エスカレーターはガタピシ鳴るし照明は薄暗い。だから建て替えではなく、こういう、20年くらい経った建てものの上手なリノベの仕方をマジで考えないといけないと痛感する。しかしさらに言えば、最初にいい材料でいい空間を作っておけばと思う。旧三楽病院のパーケットフロアは今でも頭に蘇る。特に階段室のそれ。外光がたくさん入る場所だったからで空間として心に残っている。山田守のランプもそうだ。ランプの車椅子に座る祖母が蘇る。老朽化とは単に物が古びることだけではない。人々の心の中で陳腐化するという意味も含む、それは材料や、構法だけの問題ではなくもっと空間やディテールを含む総合的なことである。サスティナブルとは陳腐化しないデザインという側面も重要なのである。しかし全ては定量化しないと気が済まない、悪しき科学盲信がそんな評価基準を排除してしまう。見直すべきことだと思う。

The former Welfare Pension Hospital was born in 1932 as a masterpiece of Mamoru Yamada, and survived until the turn of the century. My grandmother was hospitalized and I remembered that transparent lamp. Although I worked at Nikken near to this hospital, I didn’t use it much because I often went to Sanraku Hospital, where my father had a connection (my mother was born in Sanraku and died in Sanraku).

The new welfare pension was also designed by Mamoru Yamada office and completed in 2000. After that, the name changed due to the reorganization of the management body, and it became JCHO Tokyo Medical Center. Many of the long names in the merger and renaming during the bubble period are forgettable. But the meaning is that the regional medical function promotion organization . I realized the concept of the facility this time which is the cooperative play between the accurate instruction of the female doctor of “Mimi Hana Nodo Kagurazaka Clinic”. and the immediate acceptance of this hospital. By the way, the chairman of this JCHO is that chairman Omi.

Two years ago, at this hospital in the neighborhood, I felt that the white Yamada style curve was the accent of the intersection on the walk course with my spouse. However, the aging of 20 years after completion cannot be hidden. The escalator rattles and the lighting is dim. Therefore, I am keenly aware that I have to seriously think about how to renovate a building that has been built for about 20 years, rather than rebuilding it. But for that matter, I think we should first create a good space with good materials. The parquet floor of the former Sanraku Hospital still revives in my head. Especially that of the staircase. It was a place where a lot of outside light came in, so it remains in my heart as a space. So is Mamoru Yamada’s lamp. Grandmother sitting in the wheelchair of the lamp revives. Getting old is not just about things getting old. It also means that it does not become obsolete in people’s minds, it is not just a matter of materials and construction, but a comprehensive thing that includes more space and details. Sustainable is also important in terms of design that does not become obsolete. However, all must be quantified, and bad scientific blind faith eliminates such evaluation criteria. I think it should be reviewed.
