About The Peach Garden Hostel Homestay

In dit project toont de ontwerper tijdens de wederopbouw voldoende respect voor het oude huis. Het aanbouwdeel heeft de vorm van een houtstructuur, waardoor niet alleen de verbinding tussen nieuwe en oude gebouwen natuurlijk lijkt, maar het nieuwe deel ook een licht gevoel en een doorlopende ruimte krijgt. Aan de voet van de bergen en de Grote Muur is de transparante interface indrukwekkend, vooral wanneer architectuur en natuur in elkaar overvloeien.

Production Technology
During the reconstruction of the old house, the original timber structure has been reserved, while part of external walls has been renewed. As for the strategy of light construction, it is sustainable and can achieve high construction quality by a low cost.
Design Challenge
The depth of it was quite small, about 4.2 meters. Obviously, the small space was not able to satisfy the new functional need. Therefore, the design team extended a multi-function hall by timber construction in the southeast corner, which is closed to the original annex. And the key problem in design is how to minimize the effect of newly built part on the historical building. In the end, the design team decided to remain the strategy of light construction, which is what they have been studying and practicing.
Research
The rebuilding concept is based on the relationship between architecture and nature. On the one hand, the design team chose the raw materials of nature – timber, which is also the original bearing structure of the old building. On the other hand, they utilized large area glass to allow nature permeate into the room. Through the glass, guests are able to enjoy the beauty of the seasons as well as the Great Wall.
Inspiration
In sharp contrast between the old and the new, the heavy and the light, the historical building is reborn.
Project Duration
The project was completed at No.10, Shihuyu Village, Jiuduhe Town, Huairou, Beijing, China in 2019.
Operation Flow
During the reconstruction of the old house,the design team reserved the whole stone walls, but rebuilt the southern wall. Meanwhile, they redesigned the entrance and windows, as well as the viewing boxes. They tore down the shabby roof, added insulation and waterproof layer, as well as the skylight. In addition, the traditional grey roofing tiles have been recycled. What is more, the design team utilized large area glass to allow nature permeate into the room.
