About Memoir of Childhood Reminiscence 住宅
「幼少期の追憶の記憶」は、オーストラリア・シドニーのコガラーにある角地に建つ住宅である。2階建てのこの住まいは、駐車場と収納を備えた地下、オープンプランの1階、4つの寝室を配した2階、そして庭園を伴う屋上テラスから構成されている。曲線を描く外壁は隅切りされた角地の形状に沿い、テラコッタで仕上げられている。彫刻的なテラコッタパネルは、釣りや凧揚げ、民族音楽といった施主の幼少期の思い出を想起させる。窓とバルコニーは、街の眺望や採光、自然換気を取り込むように配置されている。

Also the clients signature was envisioned in the building scape, through his reminiscence of childhood memories in terracotta.
- Research
- Thorough research on site elements were conducted to construct design ideas. The balconies and grand openings are directed to enjoy the clear stunning city views. Northern windows positioned to allow natural lighting and ventilation. Green and offsetting slit wall in the West allows protection from Western sun as well as traffic noise. The proposed dwelling has been designed to take into consideration the location and form of the existing block. The dwelling has a curved external wall that is adorned with terracotta cladding on concrete wall that addresses the corner of the site and follows the splay corner. The stepped roof is the result of following sloped terrain, resulting in green and terraces in lairs.
- Inspiration
