Design Strategy

-釉面山墙孔洞

- Glazed gable void

通过前后移动两个固体质量，一个空洞被产生并被设定为一个“家”的核心。它作为家族祖先的家庭变体。我们想在台湾的家庭中重新找到这个空间的关系。

By shifting two solid masses backwards and forwards, a void is generated and set as the core of a “home”. It functions as household alter of family’s ancestor. And we want to redefind this space’s relations in Taiwan’s family.

-俯瞰盖山岛的屋顶

-The Rooftop overlooking Gueishan Island

通过喝茶和欣赏太阳升起的仪式，我们希望客户能在大自然中重新生活。在建筑上，我们建造了几个屋顶露台，以提供各种各样的景观，如稻田，远处的山，以及从海的地平线升起的太阳。

Through the ritual of drinking teas and appreciating the sun rising, we want the client to live again in the nature. Architecturally, we create several roof terraces to provide various sceneries, such as the rice field, the mountain in the distance, and the sun rising from the sea horizon.

-家庭肖像

- The portrait of home

在建筑设计中，我们把房子想象成一个抽象的燕窝，这样就可以从远处广阔的田园中辨认出它的特色。更重要的是，对于这两个移动实体的功能，这是为客户的两个儿子的居住规划，它是一个流动的空间，更灵活，可以多功能。

In architectural design, we imagined the house as an abstract swallows’ nest, so the characteristic feature can be identified in the vast rural field, from far away. And more to the function of these two shifting solid masses, which are planned for client’s two sons to inhabit, it is generated a flowing space that is more flexible and can be multi-functioned.

-综合景观和空间经验

- Integrated landscape and spatial experience 

这里有流浪的乡间小道，水稻田里的灌溉沟，远处的起伏山丘，我们把它们转化为一种空间体验：客厅里的曲线楼梯，一个人可以坐在或躺下的轴线上的悬空平台，随着山墙而变化的楼梯，以及折叠墙形成的阁楼空间。所有这些元素结合在一起，产生另一种空间体验。

There are the wandering small country roads, the irrigating ditches amidst the paddy rice field, and the rolling hills in the distant, which we transform into a spatial experience: the curvilinear staircase in the living room, suspended platform along the axis on which one can sit on or lie down, the stairs changing with the gables, and the attic space shaped by the folding walls. All these elements integrate together and generate another spatial experience.

-使用光阱来激励空间的流动

- The use of light-well motivating the flow of the space

从战略上设计，我们转变观点，使空间更加有趣，具有流动的品质。因此，阳台顶部的光井，阁楼上方的天窗，以及家庭的牧师都提高了家禽的品质。

Designed strategically, we shifting the viewpoint to make the space more interesting and have the quality of flowing. Therefore, the light-well on the top of the balcony, the skylight atop the attic, and the clerestory of the household alter all increase the fowling quality.

当夜幕悄然降临时，家里的空荡荡变成了家庭回家的安全港湾。

When the night comes quietly, the flowing void of the household alter becomes the safe harbor for the family to come home to.
