Prologue - Prologue

Now the prison is not enough by far.
The average rate of 110% of the capacity of prisons across the abnormal situation.
According to the Crime Reports issued last year after prison recidivism rate over 40 percent, 3,000 more each year - surged to a new prison inmates as many as 4,000, it is urgent to build a new prison to a new one.

Needless to say the prison, to accommodate people who committed a crime, to rehabilitate the building.
However, the recidivism rate and above, and an increase in new prisoners, and that the healthy functioning of the prison situation is hard to say.

Regular prison, not to change is a prerequisite.
Got up at 6:30 every day, inmates are housed in a prison labor is to 5.30 pm, there is no overtime work on holidays.
The program provides vocational training that supports modern and computer programming in a rare, women can learn beauty.
Qualification pass rate over 80%, calculated nutrition free food, free medical and welfare services.
They are built into every prison in the period, this irony is not kidding about to finish up.

Recidivism rate of 40% mentioned at the beginning, for an increase in more than 3,000 inmates each year has much wait and see is actually housed.
But when you look at the situation from outside, is considered a major factor in our relationship with the GATT and the location of the prison.
Prison is usually deliberately kept away from the station or airport and transport infrastructure are located in suburban or rural areas.
Covered with a thick concrete wall five meters high, and did not even know each other from within the state from the area.
The center of the city jail these two factors, in the downtown area and putting in the new prison could be a clue to the rehabilitation of inmates is that the outline of the project.
Rehabilitation Program Center in Shinjuku can (prison), Shinjuku prison. Jukusho short.

Location - Location

Putting the city, but it is too far away place and a crime that atonement,
Only for the inmates continue to follow orders from long-term prison guard in an idyllic rural, which is the main reason that prevents you forget why you are doing here is where my.

Kabuki-cho 1-chome site is now blocked nearly 5,700 square feet and all have been closed two years ago Koma Theater.

Here's why there are two.
First, there is too specific prison, people close to the building just to accommodate the many murderers and drug addicts are forced to anxiety.
And urban areas and, although the less crowded places, and lost in the presence of a nearby prison, it could inflict a negative image of the surrounding area.
Therefore, people 住Mitsukazu desirable entertainment prison strong competitive presence.

The Red Light District, usually occurs near the station, is located near the center of the city as a result.
Calm place, if possible prison generally well-maintained, good, stain the streets like the above image.
However, if entertainment is high-crime area, working as a deterrent to crime around the contrary, would not it work as a self-cleaning action of the city jail. And there is a prison from the extraordinary feature of public facilities like museums and libraries, such as moral, easily meld with their surroundings. Cooperation rather than to shape according to the city, so it is better to ice the top and center of the square facing the main street of the city as a symbol tinged with symbolism.

Form - Form

The planar form of the existing prison, according to characteristics of the site was high-rises.

First, you've a general prison grounds, near the middle building is light and jumped a fence of 5M,
And maintained around the boundaries.

Therefore, to ensure high from 込Menai looked around, to put volume of 2,000 prison can accommodate more general scale.

At this rate, so they too have a feeling of pressure in both inner and outer boulevards busy (red) square facing the theater and coma (yellow) to match the height of the eyes looked up naturally from the earth, and a crack of two open.

The detention facilities around the site instead of the wall, through the huge atrium inside was in a different capacity with the existing grade or position to verify 出Kinakatta, fellowship with the look and height range, open The two holes can be involved with the same length and height of our people and the GATT.

Facade - Appearance

The exterior is covered in thick black smoked a wire went.
We provide a consistent and say that it break the atmosphere of the city while their presence felt.
People go to Kabukicho, will uplift your consciousness, and what seems to be carrying a leg while nervous and excited.
Juxtaposed with the risk unapproachable, Kabukicho is the charm of a gray to explore what feels like a dangerous place somewhere.
It broke, do not want to become safe to spend the night in Kabukicho children and families.
Smoked black, and three days to make morning and evening wear.
Kabukicho Prison late at night and early morning is just a half-day shift hours of life.
The facade of this shift look different, and linking urban and prison seems to be difficult to coexist.

Morning. Kabukicho are said to be sleeping city that never sleeps.
At that time, prison awake, make it stand out and black contrast of blue sky "is Kabukicho Prison" is.
During the day, with people through the street, people are square, can be viewed at a distance from the inmate work oblique hole.

Evening. When the sky became dark out, back to work after their prison capacity building.
Kabukicho people gathered at the same time gradually, a few hours will begin to take turns sleeping in Kabukicho prison and begins to move,
Presence to inform people around the prison.

Late at night. Kabukicho is awake, keep moving actively until morning.
When most 歌舞伎町Rashii Kabukicho, the prison off, and sleeping, and assimilated into the black wall of darkness, dispel the present.
Becomes obscure, and there is always Kabukicho not changed, but the people around him is "a prison there" remains only a memory.

Interface - contact

Just because in urban areas, this is not an open prison.
Soto is covered with a transparent glass, the house became like a zoo spectacle, there is a hierarchy can only become an object of scorn,
Substantial rehabilitation, and expected to become a lower recidivism rate, such as problem solving, though.
Soto was covered in black from translucent glass, the exchange between uchi and soto look at the two holes can be seen.
October, tailored to look inside the space to create an unusual plant that is the uncomfortable tension.
Red People the bottom right of the main street overlooking the factory 80M.
The prototype of the prison called the Panopticon, the scrutiny is seen when I do not know from the guards, would have been a clue to the rescue.
However, the relationship between severing seen the show, the presence of the guards gradually increases in a position of rulers, just follow the instruction himself without thinking continues, by prison guards in bullying others, as well as violence in sight has been done.
Here, the scrutiny is not a keeper, and us.
Out of curiosity I looked up, I look up hatred in the eyes of the purpose of an unspecified number of eyes is not the same.
Panopticon Panopticon is that today's changes.
