This project is about designing a home for a young couple within a 70meter square interior space, and to create an unique living experience in such a limited condition.
We organize a series of functional blocks to accommodate daily-life functions, to make space in between, and set them in a way to allow sunlight to penetrate to the deepest corner.
These seemingly “placed” blocks create a sense of layers in the interior and help make the space to expend psychologically – a boundless circulation experience as if the space has no end.
Surface finish and color palette is kept to the simplest to gain maximum reflection of northern sunlight. Sliding doors are hidden in places where privacy is needed, and are able to transform the space into two bedrooms.
