About Binding Void ZH Arkitektura

Villa bezeroen interpretazio bat da' etxe baten definizio bateratua ez duten nortasun propioak. Senarra bizitza modu irekian ospatzen duen gizabanako soziala da, eta emaztea bere pribatutasunaz eta espazioaz gozatzen duen barnekotasun soziala da. Gainera, biak bat datoz etxea zoriontsu eta lasai egoteko lekua dela esatean, horregatik, Paseo-k zoriontasunaren esanahia aztertu zuen. Gero, espazialki itzuli zuen etxeko jabeak islatzeko' pertsonaiak. Txaletaren diseinuak eguzki-argia zuzeneko hutsunean zehar uzten du neguan, eta cantilever-ek itzalpeko espazioak eskaintzen ditu udan.

Unique Properties
The Villa is an interpretation of the clients’ own personalities who do not have a unified definition of a house. The husband is a social individual who celebrates life openly whereas the wife is a social introvert who enjoys her privacy and own space. Besides that, both agree that a home is a place to be happy and relaxed in, therefore we looked into the meaning of happiness and translated is spatially to
reflect the home-owners’ characters.
Located in Mount Lebanon, the site in itself benefits from spectacular views overlooking the sea and the mountains. The plot is a steep slope which was integrated within the design and utilized to create different outdoor spaces. It features a pool overlooking the mountain range and sea beyond, framed by the building elements, an outdoor seating area at the upper level for extra privacy, as well as a safe space for children to play and enjoy their time.

Production Technology
Located in Mount Lebanon, the site in itself benefits from spectacular views overlooking
the sea and the mountains. The plot is a steep slope which was integrated within the
design and utilized to create different outdoor spaces. It features a pool overlooking the
mountain range and sea beyond, framed by the building elements, an outdoor seating
area at the upper level for extra privacy, as well as a safe space for children to play and
enjoy their time.
Design Challenge
The hardest part was transforming the ideas into spaces and forming one single villa holding contradictory personalities yet can be used by both.
Research
After meeting the clients and discussing their personalities and what they hate and like, We found that this project should be an interpretation of their own personalities that do not have common definition for a home, other than both being happy and relaxed in it. We searched for the meaning of happiness for both and transformed them in to spaces but the connection was still missing. We connected these two volumes with a void where light celebrates there relation that is strong and healthy.
Inspiration
This project was inspired by the couple's differences yet their harmony in life and big Love present in their relation.
The site that has a spectacular view and exceptional natural frames. As well as The plot has a steep topography, that was used to level the villa
Project Duration
The construction of this project started in 2019 in Deirkouche, Mount-Lebanon and finished in July 2022.
Operation Flow
This Villa has a deep connection with the sea and mountain view it has, As well as it celebrates the light inside the villa, This villa is very eco-friendly as it allows direct sunlight to pass into the villa during winter and at the summer it is protected by the cantilevers. The owners of the villa after living in it, their answer to whether the living spaces and accessibility of the villa is as they dreamed of: the Answer was "it is so good to be true" the owners that are living its experience everyday are still enjoying and feeling that it is talking to their dreams and wishes.
