About Slope House 주택

슬로프 하우스(Slope House)는 대한민국 원주시의 완만한 경사지에 자리한 2층 주택이다. 핵심 디자인 개념은 지붕이자 파사드로 동시에 기능하는 경사면이다. 이 지붕은 강렬한 시각적 인상을 주는 동시에 대지 인근 감악산의 능선을 연상시킨다. 테라스는 지붕을 깎아내어 만들었으며 동쪽 산을 향해 열려 있어 사계절 내내 넓은 조망을 제공한다. 아연 패널이 지붕을 덮어 폭설에 견디도록 했고, 벽체는 밝은 회색 벽돌로 구성했다. 코르텐 강은 이 두 재료를 이어주는 역할을 한다. 연면적은 187제곱미터이다.

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.
