The Design

About Gallege Woonhuis

Open en indrukwekkende architectuur met ramen over de hele weg. Het is een garagehuis waar drie hobbyauto's kunnen worden geparkeerd op een klein terrein in een woonwijk, en de auto en het leven van mensen op de juiste manier in balans zijn, en de architectuur zelf wordt beoordeeld als een bekwaam ontwerp dat een galerij is. En hoewel de compositie van de ruimte heel eenvoudig is, vormen de doorlopende ramen in horizontale richting een mooie en evenwichtige gevel.

Unique Properties: An open and impressive building with three hobby cars parked on a small land in the city and windows throughout the road.

Production Technology: Complex and daring space configuration is building strength will be anxiety. Sufficient structural analysis was carried out to safely construct this open house, and it was constructed firmly and safely using large-section laminated wood and metal joints. In Japan, which is an earthquake-prone country, structural calculations are extremely important and the utmost consideration is being given to the heavy use of wood structures.
Design Challenge: As an urban residential area, we will realize a rich and open life and protect the privacy of residents. A highly open design is realized with a wooden structure, contributing to low carbonization. In addition, ensuring excellent design while ensuring earthquake resistance in Japan, which is a country with many earthquakes, is a major issue.
Research: Verification of openness and privacy of houses planned in urban areas. Held a tour in the field, we conducted a questionnaire from a third party, to explore.
Inspiration: Houses built in urban areas are often designed to be closed. Consider designing large open homes in urban areas, focusing on windows that connect to society. In order to ensure the privacy and openness, it is necessary to avoid the crossing of the eyes of passers-by and residents, but the privacy of securing is also possible when you consider the position of each of the line-of-sight.
Project Duration: The project was completed in Hyogo, Japan in November 2020
Operation Flow: The first floor is mainly used as a garage. The living space is located on the second floor and above. It has become a openness residential, but fine devised to line-of-sight does not intersect with the passers-by have been made.
