First, I want to ask what is housing.I thought living as part of nature was the most important essence of housing.
A young couple with two daughters said they wanted to enjoy a life they had not experienced in an apartment. And I wanted to make them experience the unusualness of everyday life in spaces all over the house where they could stay for a while in everyday movements even though it would be a bit cumbersome and uncomfortable.

The site for a house in Hoengseong-gun, Gangwon-do was sitting next to the Seom River, around which there was already a village of detached houses and villas. When I first saw the site, Gageojiji (ʦËÜñýò¢), the name of house in Hoengseong came up in my head, which means a good place to stay. Although the house is not their usual living space, I built it with the hope that they would understand the meaning of its name (Gageojiji) while staying there. And I also designed it with the hope that the name of the house would be fulfilled.
