The site is where the client's grandfather built a single-family house where three generations lived together, creating cherished memories. The client's goal was to rebuild the property into a new structure that would serve both as a residence for the family and generate rental income. The new building, called "Haedal House," is a five-story structure with a basement. The basement floor is designated for commercial use, the first floor for parking, and the second through fifth floors are divided into six multi-family residential units.
Given the location in a dense and complex old urban residential area, the aim was to ensure that the new building would blend into the neighborhood while also helping to organize the surroundings. This was achieved through the careful selection. of exterior materials, colors, massing, and facade design. The familiar image of red brick and gray stucco, often seen in the neighborhood, was maintained, and a clean, simple volume was used to keep the design orderly. Features like arches were added to reduce the heavy feel of the mass.
With an 11-meter road to the south providing good natural light, the northern facade gradually steps back due to the legal sun
exposure regulations. The four units on the front side of each floor are designed in a 3.5-bay layout, with living rooms and bedrooms facing south, offering bright, apartment-style layouts. The two rear units were designed as duplexes and studios, with enough sunlight and views provided by southwest-facing windows. The rear terraces were designed with large front-facing windows to encourage active use of the terrace space. While each unit has a slightly different layout, the design ensured efficiency in construction while retaining distinctive features.
The commercial space in the basement was designed with a six- meter ceiling height, suitable for uses such as a photography studio or other high-ceilinged businesses. Currently, a children's sports center is taking full advantage of the high ceiling. Though technically a basement, the sloping site allows the space to be perceived as a ground floor from the front, ensuring plenty of natural light. The piloti space on the west side of the site was designed for parking, accessible from the side road, while the entrance to the parking and residential areas was carefully integrated into the facade to avoid drawing attention from the front.
