After studying the home owner’s requirements and criteria – spacious but “closed and open”, simple and minimal for a four-member family, the Architects came up with a daring plan which breaks all the partition-walls inside, creating a breakthrough in natural light as well as optimizing space inside the house. There are no scattering small-spaces, no towering walls and no dark patches central to the house as the existing condition, instead is an open space, flexible and full of nature.

To be able to flexibly close or open the spaces suitable to each particular demand, the Architects have designed, along the house, a system of hidden curtains – behind the walls or the closets.

It is an empathy in the designing process, a common joy when the work has been completed and, above all, a source of great encouragement for i.house to continue walking and making further efforts in the “architecture craft”.
