About Vessel in Urban Design de Interiores Residencial

Vessel in Urban é uma residência de três pavimentos concebida para a convivência de várias gerações de uma mesma família em um movimentado bairro central. O edifício é executado em concreto aparente e revestido com amplas superfícies de vidro combinadas à madeira. Paisagens verdes foram plantadas no pátio, no terraço e nas varandas, e as janelas do piso ao teto trazem a luz natural e as vistas da vegetação para cada ambiente. O posicionamento das aberturas foi planejado para preservar a privacidade em relação às casas vizinhas. As superfícies de madeira natural receberam acabamento laqueado brilhante, seguindo o ofício tradicional da laca. A área construída é de 770 metros quadrados.

Behind the Design

Press Kit

Credits, team members and technical details provided by the designer.

Unique Properties: Catering to the resident's hobbies on planting and landscape, the design master planning thoughtfully incorporates a series of floor-to-ceiling windows around every corner, so the green scenery becomes a constant presence within the interior spaces. Great daylighting conditions allow sunlight to freely shine into interior spaces. As time elapses, the occupants can sense subtle changes in light, season, and time. Additionally, designer furniture, lighting, and artwork pieces complement the lifestyle with modernized touches.
Dimensions & Packaging: Construction area 770 square meter.
Tags: Fair-faced concrete, wooden lacquerware, planting and landscape, multi-generational living, nature, minimalist architecture
Production Technology: Unlike ornamental claddings on the exterior, this fair-faced concrete residence, built across three stories, is clad with large expanses of glass and paired with wood elements. Holistically employing clean lines and stripping of ornamentation, it restores the primitive essence of architecture. The interior inherits modernized contexts, fostering a minimalist yet refined living atmosphere.
Design Challenge: The site is located in the downtown area, in close proximity to neighboring houses. During window planning, both daylighting and occupant privacy were taken into consideration. Moreover, in order to bridge the generational gap between technicians and craftsmen, both senior and junior engineers were involved during construction, ensuring that craftsmanship details could be passed down.
Research: Extending the exterior wood elements, the use of natural wood can be found from the floor to the ceiling. Paying homage to traditional wood lacquerware craftsmanship, most wooden surfaces are finished in a lacquered shine, elevating the artistry into everyday life.
Inspiration: In considering planting, we explore the relationship between the vegetation and the vessel that holds it. Reimagining the function of the vessel, the residence is a huge carrier where the residents live in and that demarcates the boundaries between the interior and the outdoors. Situated in a fast-paced downtown area, this project is built in a fair-faced concrete structure as a tranquil hideaway from the hustle and bustle in the downtown, offering the residents a place to spend their retirement years and for the next two generations of the family to live in.
Project Duration: Zhubei City, Hsinchu District
Operation Flow: In order to create a living environment that coexists with nature, green landscapes are planted in the courtyard, terrace, and balconies throughout the three-story residence. A series of floor-to-ceiling windows allows the occupants' sightlines to be continually suffused with lush scenery as they move between rooms. Residents are able to observe subtle changes in the view as the seasons shift.
