About Shared Yard 게스트하우스

셰어드 야드(Shared Yard)는 중국 베이징에 위치한 농촌 게스트하우스이다. 셰어드 야드는 목재 창틀과 벽돌 벽, 기와 지붕을 갖춘 중국 북부의 전형적인 폐가를 재건축하여 탄생했다. 오래된 집은 그대로 보존되어 탄소강 판재, 콘크리트, 화이트 오크 마감으로 지어진 새로운 건물과 연결되었다. 기존의 나무들이 새로운 매스에 그늘을 드리우며, 이 매스들은 통풍이 잘되는 위치에 배치되어 여름에도 에어컨이 필요하지 않다. 빗물과 정화된 물은 주변 농지의 관개에 사용된다.

Design Challenge
How to make an eco-friendly building? We used suitable construction methods and old materials recycled from the village to eliminate the invasion. The new buildings are under the shade of trees we preserved, being designed in a ventilated position so that air conditioning is unnecessary in summer. All the fruits and vegetables needed for life come from the surrounding vegetable fields and orchards. Rainwater and purified living water are used to irrigate the fields through a drainage system.
Research
How to treat traditional architecture is always an important issue in rural construction. The old houses on the site are typical of rural dwellings in northern China, with wooden window frames, brick walls and tiled roofs that have survived for generations. So our team first preserved the old house carefully and then connected it to the new building. We used old materials recycled from the village to complete the dialogue between traditional dwellings and contemporary architecture.
Inspiration
For architects, it is hard to find the possibility of diversified development of city and nature, while the countryside with rustic charm is a fertile land of hope, which is enough to rebuild the relationship among humankind, architecture and nature, internalize and shape tradition and current local culture, thus making them become visible and perceivable forms and symbols and permeate into the life.
Project Duration
The project started in May 2019 and finished in October 2019 in Beijing, China.
Operation Flow
The abandoned house was reconstructed, and the completed buildings not only brought the rural experience to the urbanites, but also provided the villagers with a more advanced community environment and gradually increasing income.
While attracting tourists and driving the new economy, the yard built based on local culture, inspiring villagers to get a new understanding of their local and cultural value, offering a new choice of selecting an occupation and building a living space.
