Unique Properties: Wave is a single detached dwelling embracing the natural landscape drawn from the surrounding environment. The project focused on the elements that comprise the everyday experience of the users. In particular, the living area and bar were designed as fused spaces to facilitate a solitary and communal space for entertainment, and the bathroom in a guest room on the basement floor is enhanced by the presence of skylights placed along the sun trajectory to capture its natural light.
Dimensions & Packaging: 29,650mm x 1,1000 mm x 16,300 mm

Production Technology: With elaborate details of the staircase, glass railing, and post were designed with a harmony with the natural landscape scenery. The open kitchen on the first floor conveys the meaning of central space with a prominent book matching hanging wall. The landscape and wall structure are revealed and the linear pendant connected to the curvilinear form of the architectural exterior accentuates the space. visual and tactile conditions were examined in advance through computer simulation and sampling of materials to reduce interference between the structure, function, and finishing.
Design Challenge: With a theme of landscape scenery, the project suggests various ideas related to the context of architecture. The design of a guest bathroom with a high ceiling, a heavy natural stone wall as a part of the landscape scenery, a mirror pond on the ground level, and the landing part of the garden stairs allows user experience to connect from the indoors to outdoors. The hanging fireplace separates the living space and kitchen while both spaces share the warmth upon which the fireplace is used as a new design element to divide the space.
Research: We contemplated diverse means of appreciation derived from a single detached dwelling by the user. The project intends to elevate the user fulfillment by reflecting spatial and functional elements and lifestyle. Aside from transient trends and style, our profound concerns included the type of experience that embraces every day. we assigned each experience in the space to encourage the daily life to be absorbed in the dwelling. By delivering the basic functionality of dwelling as a space of security and relaxation, a therapeutic space for family, a space for close interaction with nature.
Inspiration: The main objective of the project is to offer the living experience inherent to a single detached dwelling. The house presents general yet unique, and visceral interaction with nature. The uninterrupted mutual fusion of the landscape inside the house is especially emphasized, and the outdoor layout involves unacquainted elements amidst urban complex housings such as the front yard and pond. The project concept focuses on the space in the landscape.
Project Duration: The project started in April 2019 and finished in February 2021 in Bundanggu, Seongnamsi, Gyeonggido
Operation Flow: The open kitchen is used as a shared space for guests and the scullery as a private space for the family is compartmentalized to increase utility. Also, the divided areas of the basement area and shared living room reflecting the owner’s preference induce usability. The front door is 3 meters in height using high performance hardware that can easily be controlled by a woman and promotes a pleasant experience. Also, the motorized blinds are installed to be adjusted by the user for preferable lighting. The user reduces repetitive housework and experiences stability and aesthetic value.
