The Design

About Fish Farm House Huis

Voor de opdrachtgever betekent de zee thuis, grond voor wonen en leven. Daarom werd bij architecten vooral de nadruk gelegd op hun relatie met de zee. Fish Farm House, dat een huis vertegenwoordigt dat de zee begroet, werd omgebouwd tot een structuur die open staat voor de zee om een schuilplaats te zijn om in harmonie te blijven met de zee. Als huis met één verdieping werden het rietveld aan de achterkant van het huis en de bergen daarachter als achtergrond gebruikt. In het geval van zichtbaar beton is dit in dit vissersdorp een veel ongebruikt materiaal. Architecten van 2 m2 gebruikten echter een combinatie van bekende materialen, bijvoorbeeld steen en hout, om er vertrouwd uit te zien.

Design Challenge: When I first visited the site, the construction has been preceded by a local civil engineering contractor while piling up boulder stone randomly and dividing the land as well. It leaves much to be desired since the land was formed uniformly and it ignores the flow of landform and difference of elevation, too. As the land is ripe with potential in the relationship with nature, so I decided to take advantage of it.
Research: For the client, the sea means home, ground for living and life. So above all, the greatest focus was set on their relationship with the sea. 'Younghaeawon' which represent a house greeting sea was made into structure open to the sea in order to be a shelter to keep in tune with the sea. As a one-storied house, reed field in the rear of house and Mt. Dongmang beyond were used as a background.

Project Duration: The project started in March 2015 and finished in August 2016 in Geoje, South Korea.
Operation Flow: Since the satisfaction of users is most important in a house where people live every day, they So I focused on organizing space composition which is satiable for their lifestyle. In addition, I also considered new proposal that can enrich the spatial experience. By placing a entrance between a living room and a kitchen, I made the transition area. And by installing a large door pockets, and so it can be used as a living room as a large room. In the middle of the corridor, I proposed a family room as a buffer space of the indoor and outdoor. As limestone is used as a finishing material of the outer wall toward the inner wall, it was differentiated from the living room.
