Good mood to all. Each architect has his own idea of a comfortable home. The house for the seventy year old artist was built in South Korea strictly according to mathematical proportions, in spite of the norms we are used to. It's called the 9X9 Experimental House.
Studio Archiholic created this project. The house has dimensions of 9×9 meters on all sides. The size of the square windows are 1.2 and 1.8 meters. In all the rooms, the dimensions are calculated in such a way that they are squares in cross-section.
Another feature of the home is its unity with nature and the presence of it indoors. The Koreans like to make movable walls instead of walls and use them to change the space of an apartment. Added to this is the fact that most of the screens are glass and only conventionally divide the zones. And the architects also want it to be completely open. We will see how much of this is true.
Side view of the house. The windows are all square. In one you can see the sink without the slightest sign of curtains or frosted glass on the windows. There are many trees and other vegetation around the building.
The facade uses empty spaces. The front wall has no windows and no roof. It just shields the living area from the wind and the sun.
And this is nature inside the house. There is no ceiling and the tree grows practically under the sky, only in a pot.
On the second floor is a library and a young tree. Bookshelves move, changing the space. Glass screens around the trees are also movable. They can open or move to the side.
A projector is aimed at the screen between the trees. Instead of a comfortable couch, a bench next to the faucet for watering.
To the right of the garden is the door to the staircase.
It is difficult to call it a bedroom, because the room in the usual sense does not exist. On one side there is a corridor, and on the other side there is a staircase that leads downstairs. The third glass partition, which can easily be removed. Rectangular ceiling hatch that closes in case of rain or snow.
The basin we saw through the window from the street. It is enclosed by an opaque door on the side of the house. The small space is lined with white tiles.
This is how the hallway wall slides in. Opening the library and study.
In the evening, the entire house is illuminated by a steady yellow light. Nothing unusual on the outside.
