About Stodolove Arsitektur Hunian

Stodolove adalah sebuah rumah yang tercipta melalui konversi bangunan pertanian yang berasal dari tahun 1940. Bangunan ini berdiri di atas sebidang lahan yang dikelilingi hijauan dan pepohonan buah tua di Rumia, Polandia, pada sebuah distrik yang merupakan sisa peninggalan desa lama. Bentuk hitam sederhana dengan atap pelana ini merujuk pada lumbung-lumbung kayu tua yang masih terpelihara di kawasan tersebut. Fasadnya dilapisi papan cemara Skandinavia yang dibakar (charred) dan atapnya menggunakan kayu larch Siberia yang dibakar. Daun jendela geser berwarna hitam di lantai dasar mengingatkan pada pintu lumbung. Tinggi bangunan adalah 8500 mm dengan luas lantai 126 meter persegi.

Unique Properties: The project consisted of the conversion of an existing farm building dating from 1940. The farm building with a living room was located on a plot surrounded by greenery and old fruit trees in Rumia, in the Szmelta district, which is a remnant of a former village.The planning of the interior layout on the ground floor started rather unusually, with the front window, with a seating area that was to be the central hub of the entire living space.
Dimensions & Packaging: 6800 x 1180 mm
building height 8500 mm
floor area of the building 126 m2
Tags: modern barn, shou sugi ban wood, wooden barn, old barn, barn
Production Technology: Siberian larch board charred on the roof, board Scandinavian spruce charred on the facade
Design Challenge: The primary problem was the construction law and regulations for the land on which the redevelopment was to take place. The area under conservation supervision with great restrictions and prohibitions. Geological surveys, structural studies of the building that was to be rebuilt, creation and agreement of the building design took several months. The reconstruction itself took more than 3 years, largely blocked by pandemics and rising prices for materials and services, as well as a problem with the availability of materials.
Research: In order to learn about the history of the site and the region, it was necessary to study archival maps retrieved from Polish and foreign servers, obtain archival documents and photos for the area, and own observations and photo documentation of the remains of former farm buildings from the area.
Inspiration: The current form of the building and the finishing of the façade with black tan board is a reference to the old wooden barns, of which there are still several preserved in the area. Respect for the history of the site initiated analysis, collecting photographs and archive maps of the area in order to create a building that would be a link between the tradition and the present day.
Project Duration: Project started March 2019, finished June 2022 in Rumia, Poland
Operation Flow: I was very keen to place the building in the context of the site and its surroundings. I wanted to respect the history and climate of the building, preserve the tradition and create a building that would attract the eye with its simplicity, but would not shout or drown out the surrounding nature with its form. A simple black block with a pitched roof covered with a tan Siberian larch board, Scandinavian spruce on the façade and black sliding shutters on the ground floor, whose form is meant to refer to a barn door, make the appearance coherent and unobtrusive.
