PRELIMINARY STUDY
DATE : 06/2010
The residence was designed to provide two main functions-a residence and professional office- which will operate independently at level 0 (+ 1m), on a seperate but communicating volume next to the residence. This enables the owner to initially construct the volume of the residence and then the office, if he so chooses.
The building is divided into three levels. At level 0 (+ 1.00m) is placed the elevated entrance (common for office and housing), the living room, the kitchen, the dining room with the hanging table and a small WC. At level 1 (+4.5m) the most private areas are placed. The house has “sealed facades” to south due to climatic conditions and large openings on the South and East side.
The key element of the concept is the cross shaped circulation area, but also the replacement of the classic furniture with a repetitive minimalist rectangular volume, placed on the walls to let the rest of the free plan was another one.
