Residence of Three Generations / MINOR lab

Common and Uncommon Living for Seven. We were commissioned in early 2019 by a couple who wanted to build a shared home for their wife’s families. The 212-square-meters site is located in a village on the outskirts of Beijing. It was the residence of the client and her family when she was a child. Being away for many years, the couple now wants to return to the village life with the family. The client's parents and her younger sister's family of three will be living here on daily basis. The client couple who live in the city will come here on weekends to reunite with family and experience village life. For them, it is a vacation house.
