KITO Yamanashi Head Office / Takenaka Corporation
"Yamanashi is surrounded by various mountains such as Mt. Fuji, one of Japan's representative mountains, and is one of the few inland basins in the island nation of Japan. With long hours of sunshine, low annual precipitation, large daily temperature differences, and abundant water resources, grape cultivation has flourished in the region since ancient times, and today, grape trellises weave across the landscape."

Yamanashi occupies an inland basin framed by mountains including Mt. Fuji and benefits from long sunshine hours, low annual precipitation, large daily temperature swings, and abundant water resources. Those climatic conditions and water availability have supported grape cultivation since ancient times. Vineyard trellises now pattern the landscape, creating an agricultural fabric across slopes and plains. Environmental architecture in the region references grapevine trellis systems, integrating agricultural geometries into built form. Architectural responses engage with local climate, topography, and viticultural heritage to produce designs that relate structurally and visually to the trellis network. The resulting buildings emphasize context-driven form and landscape continuity.
