The Design

About Fish Farm House Casa

Para o cliente, o mar significa casa, terra para vivir e vivir. Por iso, sobre todo, o arquitecto puxo o maior foco na súa relación co mar. Fish Farm House, que representa unha casa de saúdo ao mar, converteuse nunha estrutura aberta ao mar para ser un abrigo para estar en sintonía co mar. Como unha casa dun só piso, o campo de xuncos na parte traseira da casa e a montaña máis aló usáronse como fondo. No caso do formigón visto, é un material moi pouco utilizado nesta vila mariñeira. Non obstante, os arquitectos de 2 m2 utilizaron unha combinación de materiais coñecidos, por exemplo pedra e madeira, para parecer familiar.

Design Challenge: When I first visited the site, the construction has been preceded by a local civil engineering contractor while piling up boulder stone randomly and dividing the land as well. It leaves much to be desired since the land was formed uniformly and it ignores the flow of landform and difference of elevation, too. As the land is ripe with potential in the relationship with nature, so I decided to take advantage of it.
Research: For the client, the sea means home, ground for living and life. So above all, the greatest focus was set on their relationship with the sea. 'Younghaeawon' which represent a house greeting sea was made into structure open to the sea in order to be a shelter to keep in tune with the sea. As a one-storied house, reed field in the rear of house and Mt. Dongmang beyond were used as a background.

Project Duration: The project started in March 2015 and finished in August 2016 in Geoje, South Korea.
Operation Flow: Since the satisfaction of users is most important in a house where people live every day, they So I focused on organizing space composition which is satiable for their lifestyle. In addition, I also considered new proposal that can enrich the spatial experience. By placing a entrance between a living room and a kitchen, I made the transition area. And by installing a large door pockets, and so it can be used as a living room as a large room. In the middle of the corridor, I proposed a family room as a buffer space of the indoor and outdoor. As limestone is used as a finishing material of the outer wall toward the inner wall, it was differentiated from the living room.
