Description
In this project, the selected site is a small empty Plot (narrow), in between existing buildings, which is considered as “Urban Void” and according to the needs of the region and the existing conditions has a Residential use. The house is designed as flexible Platforms and half-storeys (for lighting and ventilation) for an artist’s couple, whose workplace and Exhibition for their artworks are also considered. The total volume of the house, with a significant retreat from the sidewalk and giving it to the city, creates a sense of security and invitations for passersby, while the outer mesh shell with a considerable distance from the volume and the Rotationally open-close ability and greening, preserves the privacy of the house and maintaining the proper ventilation and visibility to the city. Therefore the final Volume is such, that plays its role in the form of a house and an exhibition at the same time and owns perfect illumination.
