Playful Apartment is located in the middle floors of a twenty-year-old apartment block. The project aims to define the space flexibly in line with the lifestyle of the house's residents, so that the user has the possibility to playfully manipulate the boundaries and find suddenness, unpredictability, and interaction with the audience. In the new configuration of the space, we gave the main role to the wardrobes- As a multifunctional object. We gave them the role of movable boundaries and suspended objects in addition to their usual function. At the same time as the continuity of the house, the kitchen and the communal space are contracted and expanded with the help of movable wardrobe-tables. With all its limitations, this project, is an exercise to create freedom and the right to choose, however small, so that the user can experience the possibility of being free from the definite dimensions and playfully interact with the usual rule of space.
Paya Payrang architectural group started its activities under Concept name in 2010 with four members; aiming at establishing a space for creation and express; in the context of team work with equal members who are bound to sustainable architecture.
