About The Peach Garden Hostel Homestay

Bei diesem Projekt zeigt der Designer beim Wiederaufbau ausreichend Respekt vor dem alten Haus. Der Anbauteil nimmt die Form einer Holzstruktur an, die nicht nur die Verbindung zwischen neuen und alten Gebäuden natürlich erscheinen lässt, sondern dem neuen Teil auch ein leichtes Gefühl und einen durchgehenden Raum verleiht. Am Fuße der Berge und der Chinesischen Mauer ist die transparente Schnittstelle beeindruckend, insbesondere wenn Architektur und Natur miteinander verschmelzen.

Production Technology
During the reconstruction of the old house, the original timber structure has been reserved, while part of external walls has been renewed. As for the strategy of light construction, it is sustainable and can achieve high construction quality by a low cost.
Design Challenge
The depth of it was quite small, about 4.2 meters. Obviously, the small space was not able to satisfy the new functional need. Therefore, the design team extended a multi-function hall by timber construction in the southeast corner, which is closed to the original annex. And the key problem in design is how to minimize the effect of newly built part on the historical building. In the end, the design team decided to remain the strategy of light construction, which is what they have been studying and practicing.
Research
The rebuilding concept is based on the relationship between architecture and nature. On the one hand, the design team chose the raw materials of nature – timber, which is also the original bearing structure of the old building. On the other hand, they utilized large area glass to allow nature permeate into the room. Through the glass, guests are able to enjoy the beauty of the seasons as well as the Great Wall.
Inspiration
In sharp contrast between the old and the new, the heavy and the light, the historical building is reborn.
Project Duration
The project was completed at No.10, Shihuyu Village, Jiuduhe Town, Huairou, Beijing, China in 2019.
Operation Flow
During the reconstruction of the old house,the design team reserved the whole stone walls, but rebuilt the southern wall. Meanwhile, they redesigned the entrance and windows, as well as the viewing boxes. They tore down the shabby roof, added insulation and waterproof layer, as well as the skylight. In addition, the traditional grey roofing tiles have been recycled. What is more, the design team utilized large area glass to allow nature permeate into the room.
