This is a renovation project of a house into two-family house. Making the wood structure strengthened as well as beautifully designed is the main theme of this project. To regenerate a house excellently, the intention is to design structure of woods and light.
While the existing beams are placed at random, new beams are evenly added to the frame which would bring about the sense of order and express the transitional beauty reflecting light and shadows.
Two beams are lighting equipment, the wood frame and the light would be unified when they encounter. The overhung stairs of woods would create flow of spaces from the entrance to the rooms in the second floor via the main room. The desk and handrail of woods designed using the existing columns represents the conversation between the old and the new.
The terrace enfolded by wall of woods functions as outdoor room one would feel nature. It not only creates spaces like a forest where nature and the wood frames mingle making the most of the project lot but also would positively interact with the city.
The house is not only aesthetically beautiful but also show stunning efficacy of regeneration.
