露地(ろじ)の作り方「茶庭(ちゃにわ)」


十川日本庭園研究室です。今回は露地の作り方についてご紹介いたします。一口に露地と言っても、使用目的とお招きする方々の人数や客層、そしてお手入れする頻度やそれに従事する方の人数といった、作庭にあたり必要な情報を予めリサーチする必要があります。

This is the Tokawa Japanese Garden Laboratory. This time, I will introduce how to make an roji. Even if you say roji, it is necessary to research in advance the necessary information for gardening such as the purpose of use, the number of guests and customers, the frequency of care and the number of people engaged in it.

①計画内容
Contents of the plan


「何を主体にするのか」を施主様と事前に綿密な打ち合わせをいたします。今回は、基本的にお茶事(ちゃじ)のお稽古が主目的ということでした。(水屋(みずや)の人数は、5~6名想定)
茶室内の清掃及び、露地の草取り・掃除は一人で一日、または二人で半日位を目安にし、中門(ちゅうもん)の迎付(むかえつけ)は他の流派でも対応できるようにいたします。木の多い街なので、竹垣で囲い、あまり植栽をせずに別世界を作ろうという試みです。
大人数のお客様を招いたときにも全て対応できるような設計で、更に小中学生の生徒さんも無理なく使用できるように配慮します。
施工は、社中(しゃちゅう)の皆さんで手伝っていただきましたので、使い勝手は大変良くなりました。今後、露地作りをされる方の参考になれば幸いです。

We will discuss “What is the focus?” with the client in detail in advance. This time, the main purpose was basically to practice tea ceremony. (The number of people in the Mizuya is assumed to be 5 ~ 6.)
The cleaning of the teahouse and the weeding and cleaning of the roji should take about one day by one person or half a day by two people, and the welcoming service of the Chumon gate can be handled by other schools. Since it is a town with many trees, it is an attempt to create a different world by surrounding it with a bamboo fence without planting much.
It is designed so that it can be used when a large number of customers are invited, and moreover, consideration is given so that elementary and junior high school students can use it without difficulty.
Because everyone in the company helped me with the construction, it became very easy to use. I hope it will be helpful for those who are going to make open air space in the future.

②石組・飛石
Stone arrangement and Tobi-ishi(Stepping-stones)

躙口(にじりぐち)前の踏石(ふみいし)、落石(おちいし)を仮置きします。踏石、落石はバランスが悪いので、後程交換します。踏石は躙口に膝がかかるように据え付けますが、人により様々です。今回はお施主様の希望通りに据え付けました。また、草履(ぞうり)が揃え易いようにします。

The humi-ishi and ochi-ishi* in front of nijiriguchi* are temporarily placed. The ochi-ishi are unbalanced, so we will change them later. humi-ishi is installed so that the knee is put on nijiriguchi, but it varies depending on the person. This time, we installed it as the owner requested. Also, make it easy to arrange zori sandals.

⑥あとがき
Afterword

露地は使う方々が一緒に作ることが「最良の方法」だと痛切に感じました。若い頃に設計し初めて作った露地でしたが、小中学生からも学ぶことが多い現場でした。
また、景観だけでなく実用を兼ねると庭づくりは楽しいものです。

本を読みながら露地を作る方に一言。

本を書くような先生や学者さんは、あらゆることを想定して最高峰の内容にすることが多いです。即ち、社中にお弟子さんがたくさんいて、財力がある方を基準に書かれているようです。
しかし、現代社会では仕事や育児などで多忙な方が多い事や、植木のお手入れに費用が掛かること等を考えると、あまり欲張らずに管理しやすいように作ることをお勧めします。

I keenly felt that it is “best way” that the people who use the roji make it together. It was my first garden(roji) that I designed when I was young, but I learned a lot from elementary and elementary school students and junior high school students.
In addition, it is fun to make a garden not only for the scenery but also for practical use. A word to the person who makes the garden while reading a book. Teachers and scholars who write books often think about everything and make the contents the best. In other words, it seems to be written based on the person who has a lot of disciples and financial power in the company.
However, in modern society, many people are busy with work and childcare, and it costs a lot to take care of plants, so I recommend making it easy to manage without being too greedy.

せっかくの大切な露地を荒らしてはもったいないので。ご注意を。
I don’t want to waste your garden. Be careful.
