A white functional box is inserted in the bedroom. The box acts as "water space": shower and bathroom. It stands alone and faces the bedroom all
around. Simple form, sliding doors, spatial humbleness and the strong contrast with the wooden floor connect together to create a philosophical
atmosphere.
Appreciation towards Five AM for providing the following description:
业主希望将屋顶改造成卧室套房。应业主要求,建筑师将屋顶抬高,带来宽敞的站立空间。
The owner asked a local architect to enlarge his house with a big bedroom suite in the roof. His solution was replacing the roof by a higher one, so
the owners could easily stand up.
As the owner wanted an open and airy feeling, we designed a monolithic white box that doesn’t reach the ceiling. The height delivers the privacy
when needed, but makes it still possible to interact with each other. As the box stands completely free, the room feels spacious & delivers challenging
perspectives.
We have chosen to make the box entirely out of ‘Solid Surface’ to obtain a seamless cube on the outside and inside. On the bedside, 2 doors can swing
open. Like this the owners can take a bath and enjoy a movie on the tv hidden in the closet.
As we wanted to let the roof structure stand by his own, only the shower faucet is coming trough the ceiling. The lighting fixtures are completely
hidden on top of the 12 long closet and on top of the box walls.
与白色环境形成鲜明对比的胡杨木地板为居室传递了温暖感。
The walnut floor, in sharp contrast with the white surroundings, delivers the pleasant warmth to the interior.
