Pyrus House was started from the desire of home theater. The client determined to go to suburban area of Ansung City, where is 80Km away from the central Seoul.Ansung is famous for pear production.  A pear orchard is adjoined about 2M below the east side of the site. The condition of the site is a linear pattern from south to north and approaching road is parallel to the westward side of the site.

The client couple and a son will live in this house and his grandmother will stop from time to time.The main concern of design is to define a relation between home theater and other programs. Because vibration and sound could disturb whole house, it should be independent and related at the same time. The required size of the home theater is 5m in width and 7m in length at least and effect of natural light should be minimized.

Our strategy was placing the home theater parallel and below the road. Other spaces embrace it at various distances.Windowless wall of the home theater keeps the house privatefrom the road. Since it is semi underground space, a sunken deck was adjoined for ventilation and natural light.
