The Design

About Zen Mood Hus

Zen Mood är ett konceptuellt projekt med tre viktiga drivkrafter: Minimalism, anpassningsbarhet och estetik. Enskilda segment är anslutna och skapar en mängd olika former och användningsområden: hem, kontor eller utställningslokaler kan genereras med två format. Varje modul har utformats med 3,20 x 6,00 m arrangerade i 19m² inom 01 eller 02 våningar. Transporten sker främst med lastbilar, även den kan levereras och installeras på bara en dag. Det är en unik, modern design som skapar enkla, livliga och kreativa utrymmen som möjliggörs genom en ren och industrialiserad konstruktiv metod.

Production Technology
Steel frame structure with exterior finishing of ACM panels, interior finishing of plywood and core of thermoacoustic insulation.
Design Challenge
The main challenge was a house that could fit in parts as a truck load. Based on its dimensions, the house was split in four modules. Each has its own structure frame at the same time it should be assemble with the other modules. The floor plan layout had to be designed in other to be divided according to the structure.
Research
Felipe Savassi Modular Studio has a good know-how working on modular constructions. Francisco Eduardo, as an independent architect, worked on innovative projects that sough to explore new designs and construction technologies. After working together in a project using containers as main structure, the knowledge and previous experience helped them designing the Zen Mood.
Inspiration
Our inspiration came from the concept of modular minimalist houses like Wikkel House.
The clean and sophisticated design and the minimalist concept is present in the shapes and in the materials that make up the project - metallic elements, wood, glass - of neutral colors, that relate well to the surrounding landscape, not overlapping but still configuring as a new composer element of it.
