From the architect. We were appointed to design a 4 bedroom house in Yong-in near Seoul. The client had previously lived in a nearby ?high-rise? development, and keen to live in a house that providing more space for his children.
Scheme
Through our design we wanted to address the lack of interaction present between the family members. The dynamic of people spending more time isolated in their rooms watching TV or working say, was not specific to our Client?s family, but becoming more reflective of modern family living. This leads to a lack of communication and sharing within a family.

Our design intention was to create a house that provided the family with independent space, combined with a strong focus on shared areas. The circulation space would provide the basis of this concept as these areas are used by all members of the house to access the ?independent rooms?.
