About Zen Mood Huis

Zen Mood is 'n konseptuele projek wat gesentreer is in 3 sleuteldrywers: Minimalisme, aanpasbaarheid en estetika. Individuele segmente word aanmekaar geheg en skep verskillende vorms en gebruike: huise, kantore of vertoonlokale kan gegenereer word met behulp van twee formate. Elke module is ontwerp met 3,20 x 6,00 m wat in 19m² binne 01 of 02 verdiepings gerangskik is. Die vervoer word hoofsaaklik deur vragmotors gedoen, en dit kan binne een dag afgelewer en geïnstalleer word. Dit is 'n unieke, kontemporêre ontwerp wat eenvoudige, lewendige en kreatiewe ruimtes skep wat moontlik gemaak word deur 'n skoon en geïndustrialiseerde konstruktiewe metode.

Production Technology: Steel frame structure with exterior finishing of ACM panels, interior finishing of plywood and core of thermoacoustic insulation.
Design Challenge: The main challenge was a house that could fit in parts as a truck load. Based on its dimensions, the house was split in four modules. Each has its own structure frame at the same time it should be assemble with the other modules. The floor plan layout had to be designed in other to be divided according to the structure.
Research: Felipe Savassi Modular Studio has a good know-how working on modular constructions. Francisco Eduardo, as an independent architect, worked on innovative projects that sough to explore new designs and construction technologies. After working together in a project using containers as main structure, the knowledge and previous experience helped them designing the Zen Mood.
Inspiration: Our inspiration came from the concept of modular minimalist houses like Wikkel House.
The clean and sophisticated design and the minimalist concept is present in the shapes and in the materials that make up the project - metallic elements, wood, glass - of neutral colors, that relate well to the surrounding landscape, not overlapping but still configuring as a new composer element of it.
