About Pure Realm Innanhússhönnun íbúðarhúsnæðis
Pure Realm er íbúðarhúsnæði hannað fyrir sambúð fólks og gæludýra. Heimilið, sem er 446,28 fermetrar, þróast í kringum miðlægan garð þar sem hundur getur reikað um á öruggan hátt. Aðskildar fram- og bakbyggingar skipta umferð gesta og fjölskyldu, og skapa jafnvægi milli næðis og opnunar. Stofa með tvöfaldri lofthæð og víðáttumiklum gluggum hleypir inn dagsbirtu og dregur úr þörf fyrir gervilýsingu. Hringstigi myndar lóðréttan kjarna byggingarinnar og yfirbyggðir göngustígar tengja bílastæðið við íbúðarhúsið. Stálgrind, hrísgrjónahýði og steinefnabundnar húðanir draga úr kolefnisspori.

-Natural lighting: double-height spaces and expansive windows reduce the need for daytime artificial light.
-Low-processed materials: rice husk and mineral-based coatings lower the project’s carbon footprint. - Design Challenge
- Set on a lakeside plot with an irregular shape and a high proportion of unusable corners, the design faced challenges including:
-Designing circulation and road access
-Configuring building massing and setbacks
-Orienting windows while meeting regulatory constraints - Research
- Due to the unusual shape of the site and its lakefront location, the project has a high proportion of uneven land. Planning challenges included overcoming access routes and road design issues. Furthermore, the key design challenges were to rationally allocate building massing, window orientations, and regulatory constraints.
With the goal of creating a coexistent space for pets and people, the design sought a safe and open atrium where the dog could roam freely, balancing convenience and privacy. Furthermore, the design sought a clearly defined public and private area within the home, allowing for a natural flow between entertaining friends and daily life without interfering with each other. - Inspiration
- This project is built on the core idea of coexistence between pets and people. The homeowner envisioned a safe, open courtyard where pet dogs could roam freely while privacy and everyday convenience were equally preserved. The space was designed to clearly distinguish between public and private domains, allowing daily living and social gatherings to flow naturally while remaining independent.
- Project Duration
- The project finished in November 2025 in Taoyuan, Taiwan.
- Operation Flow
- The architectural massing unfolds around a central courtyard, creating a surrounding layout. The front and rear volumes are separated, dividing domestic and guest circulation to create a buffer between privacy and openness. A double-height atrium and staircase form the vertical core, while covered walkways connect indoor and outdoor spaces, ensuring sheltered movement in all weather. With its clean, minimalist vocabulary, the design shapes a modern dwelling for coexistence.
-Privacy and circulation: a single primary axis separates guest access from family use.
-Massing configuration: setbacks and offsets allow flexible site utilization. - Team Members
