About Hollow Valley Dealbhadh Taobh a-staigh Còmhnaidh

'S e dealbhadh taobh a-staigh còmhnaidh a th' ann an Hollow Valley airson teaghlach de shianar ann an Wenzhou, Zhejiang. Tha an dachaigh a' còmhdach 900 meatair ceàrnagach agus tha i air a rèiteachadh gus cothromachadh a dhèanamh eadar dòighean-beatha dà ghinealach. Chaidh structar tùsail an togalaich a ghearradh agus ath-eagrachadh na bhlocaichean geoimeatrach, a' cruthachadh shlighean a tha a' dol tarsainn air a chèile. Tha staidhre dhì-thogte le ceumannan às an àite a' giùlan solais eadar na làir. Tha na raointean ithe agus cidsin air an sgaradh le eilean meadhanach fada a tha a' tabhann stòraidh agus a tha na àite cruinneachaidh. Tha an t-eilean cuideachd a' stiùireadh gluasad tron rùm mar thrannsa.

Unique Properties
Located in Wenzhou City, Zhejiang Province, with a floor area of 900 square meters, this case is dedicated to reconstructing the parallel space of a family of six in a common residence, balancing the lifestyles of two generations, and creating a livable living place. The original structure of the building is cut and reorganized by geometric blocks to form crisscrossing paths, alluding to the dialectical relationship of "existence and non-existence" in oriental space philosophy.

Production Technology
Through the three-dimensional grid weaving of light and shadow, the spatial entity gradually fades into a flowing light container. The staircase installation uses a deconstructionist approach to reshape the vertical dynamic line, and the misplaced treads form a carrier for the light track, so that the light and shadow scenes of alternating day and night can freely diffuse between the floors.
Design Challenge
The original structure of the building is cut and reorganized by geometrical blocks to form crisscross paths, which is in line with the dialectical relationship of "existence and non-existence" in oriental space philosophy. The agreement of materials makes the whole space more gentle and harmonious, and the concept of indoor-outdoor communication makes the whole space brighter and freer.
Research
The first physical dimension balances the parallax through geometric cutting, the second optical dimension relies on the window system to guide the space-time narrative, and the third spiritual dimension creates an empty and silent mood through the collision of white space and texture. Ultimately, it realizes the borderless state of "living in it without servitude to things", so that intergenerational differences can be naturally bridged between the flow of light and shadow.
Inspiration
This case is a friend's house, which needs to be designed to dissolve the boundary between the lives of two generations as the core demand, and explore the multi-dimensional symbiosis system in the context of contemporary wabi-sabi aesthetics by reconstructing the parallel spatial sequence.
Project Duration
2021.12 Wenzhou, Zhejiang - 2023.05 Wenzhou, Zhejiang
Operation Flow
The dining and kitchen areas were designed separately with an elongated central island, which serves as a gathering spot with storage capabilities. The structure of the island integrates seamlessly with the rear elevation from a horizontal view angle, which also works as a corridor guiding the flow spatially.
