About Pet Treats 宠物零食工作室。

这是一幢建于1960年代的老房子。老房子的屋顶倒塌了。斑驳的墙壁，废物和植物散落在整个房屋中，旧房子变成了废墟。使空间回到自然环境是该项目的基本概念。历史建筑的“重用”已成为社会关注的话题。我们的目标是认识到人们可以互动并创造具有新价值的老房子。

Unique Properties: This is an old house built in the 1960s. Its construction area is only 80 square meters. The roof of the old house has collapsed. The mottled walls, waste and plants are scattered throughout the house, and the old house has become a ruin. The focus of the project is to restore the soul of the old house and turn the old house, which has become ruin, into a viable place.
Dimensions & Packaging: The total area of the project is 80 square meters. This is a one-floor studio with space features including work area, multi-purpose area and lounge.
Tags: Building, interior, reconstruction, old house
Production Technology: Recycled bricks and stones, white painted iron, glass, epoxy, black iron, self-leveling cement.
Design Challenge: We try to return space to the natural environment, so we just use the surrounding landscape atmosphere instead of the excessive design space, and tell the story with the natural texture and the owner's feelings for the old house.
Research: The use of the courtyard to achieve lighting and ventilation needs, the addition of large-faced glass windows on the side of the house, so that the interior is filled with natural light and more rich in lighting aesthetics. It is rainy in Taiwan, the old house is very wet, and the wall coatings are made of waterproof coating. In addition to adding a drain to the roof, the waterproofing of adjacent adjacent walls is also considered.
Inspiration: The concept of this project is to provide a place that is close to nature, here is the pet treats studio. You can create your own pet biscuit here and let the pets interact. There is no boundary between indoors and outdoors, and the activity space is connected to nature.
Project Duration: The project started in February 2018 and finished in December 2018 in Taiwan.
Operation Flow: The design of the open wall gives the old house a fresh air and makes its space more free. The multi-functional area retains the original height of the building, the high space creates comfort, the oversized glass window fully introduces natural light, optimizes the lighting and ventilation of the entire space, the seat design is like grass, and the use of blankets combined with cushions creates comfort and natural The landscape blends into the interior, making the space vibrant and making the interior brighter and softer. Deliberately retaining the old building materials records the history of the old house, and the preserved old bricks are rebuilt into courtyard walls, recording the owner's feelings for the old house.
