The site is located in Wangjiachang village, Shunyi District,in Beijing.The east of the village is adjacent to Youdi Road and Chaobai River,and the west is near the airport. The original house was abandoned.There is a branch road on the north of the house. The neighbors’ houses around the house are almost the same type of village residences. There is a poplar forest in the distance. And the landlord’s new 2-story residence is on the south.
The inner walls of the original building were removed, and the newly system connected several spaces.The scale of the courtyard was also appropriately reduced.The composition of the plane
The reconstructed plane has multiple moving lines.The southeast is the main entrance, where visitors can thought the master’s studio and appreciate exhibits before entering the living room.The master can directly enter the house to the kitchen from the exclusive parking on the north, which is convenient for the daily life.was transformed from the “three houses
The living room is the largest room. The extended sloped roof extends into it, with horizontal high windows staggered above. So the concrete roof with the original wooden roof becomes a slightly different whole . The concrete floor is dark black and shiny.Slightly reflective red bricks with protective agent extend from outside.+ central open space” to the “homogeneous
The high windows bring soft light to the deep space. The 5.4m sliding glass door can be completely hidden into the double wall. In this way, a part of the room , courtyard and plants become a whole with the warm light .multiple courtyards”.
Considering the current situation, the roof is a kind of traditional wooden stacked beams, which still keep a good condition. So the original form is retained with added a 40mm polystyrene board insulation layer. The new expanded roof uses plain concrete. Under the reflection of light, the abstract concrete with the old roof establishes a basic "wood and stone" physical relationship .
In the process of several site investigations, we find that the supporting system of all wooden roof was not supported by conventional wooden pillars but by concrete pillars,with the wall was broken. In the late 1990s, it was widely used as a form of structural support which the small prefabricated concrete column directly on the brick foundation.
