GD House

Project Featured on Dec 18, 2013
GD house is located in a prestigious neighborhood of single family houses near Skopje. Its concept was defined by the conditions of the site and the program, requested by a couple with two children.
It contains: a parking garage, a main house (with 3 bedrooms, a living room and a dining room, a studio, a closed kitchen and a big library), a swimming pool and a guest apartment (with a small fitness area).

As a sort of landscape, the architectural layout is generated by a serious of bands with east-west direction. Different ceiling heights characterize the various ambients of the house.
Starting from the north:
-the first band contains the main entrances, the pedestrian path and the car ramp leading to the underground parking garage.
-the second band contains a big library and the main path distributing the various ambient of the house (it functions as a thermic buffer from the cold air of the north)
-the third band with two different heights, emphasizes the distinction of the night zone from the day zone.
-the fourth band is a big open terrace framing the courtyard.
-the fifth band is the guest house.
Two closed volumes complete the composition: the kitchen box and the open-air fireplace.

The materials that are used are part of the Macedonian local culture and consolidated building techniques. It was decided to use row concrete as a reference to the Macedonian most brilliant period in modern architecture, made by Kenzo Tange (after the terrible earthquake in the 1963) and the architecture of its Macedonian followers. It's the material that distinguishes as form other European capitals and still constitutes our urban landscape. The concrete has been cast on site, revealing a sedimental character of the material. The house’s outside appearance is enigmatic, entirely different from the houses in the neighborhood. The closed cubic forms with a street facade made of row casted concrete reveal nothing of the luxurious world inside.
Only by entering the house, through the heavy wooden gate, one gets into an entirely different inner world – an oasis of tranquility, a living space that is generous and open, where inside and outside merge into each other.
