Building Frame of the House / IGArchitects

This small architecture is one big room. There is not much separation wall inside, and the floor creates the space, building frame walls and steps. The house is for a married couple. They have vague boundaries between their private and work life. Therefore, they imagine a house where they can work anywhere and where they can sense the presence of each other wherever in the house. With such a lifestyle, rather than having small spaces for compact living, the house was designed to have large air volume and scale, making various interactions of inside and outside space. This led to the idea of the house of frame, which is strong but flexible; it allows a liberal way of living.
