The Design

About Slope House Kediaman

Slope House adalah kediaman dua lantai yang terletak di lereng landai di kota Wonju, Korea Selatan. Konsep desain utamanya adalah bidang miring yang berfungsi sekaligus sebagai atap dan fasad. Atap ini memberikan dampak visual yang kuat serta membangkitkan kesan lereng Gunung Kam-Ak yang berada di dekat tapak. Sebuah teras dipahat ke dalam atap dan menghadap ke gunung di sisi timur, menghadirkan panorama luas sepanjang tahun. Panel zinc menutupi atap dan tahan terhadap salju tebal, sementara bata berwarna abu-abu terang membentuk dinding. Baja corten menyatukan kedua material tersebut. Total luas terbangun adalah 187 meter persegi.

Unique Properties
The project is located on a gentle slope of a mountainous topography in Wonju city, South Korea. Main design concept for the house is to compose a sloped surface that doubles as roof and facade. The roof is not only an apparatus that gives strong visual impact to residents and visitors, but also a metaphor of the slope of the Kam-Ak mountain at the site. Also the sculpted out terrace on the roof, which is facing toward the eastern mountain, provides a spectacular view throughout a year.

Production Technology
There are three major materials in use; zinc panel, brick, and corten steel. Dark colored zinc used on roof is in contrast with light gray brick wall, which differentiates the two distinct elements. Also, zinc was chosen for roof finish in order to resist the harsh winter with heavy snow. The third corten steel is used as an accent material between the zinc and brick, bridging the two finish materials.
Design Challenge
The site is known for the harsh winter weather. The harsh weather justifies the compact volume of the project.
Inspiration
The inspiration of the project came from the Kam-ak mountain near the site. Conceptually the gentle slope of the mountain extends to the house, creating the sloped roof which is a main feature of the design.
Project Duration
The project started in May 2019 in Wonju city, Kangwon, South Korea and finished in Mar 2020.
