1920년대 지어진 싱가폴 리니어 하우스를 새롭게 리뉴얼 합니다.
리니어한 1층에 새롭게 디자인된 풀장은 기존 주거공간에 새로운 모티베이션 스페이스로
공간을 확장 및 연결합니다. 이러한 연결통로의 역활을 하는 계단실은 3개의 레벨을
연결 통합하는 장치로써 활용됩니다.
여기에 풀장 스페이스를 구획하는 양측 벽면은 이전공간의 텍스쳐를 활용한 벽돌로써
현재와 과거를 연결하는 면이됩니다. 이 면으로 떨어지는 천창의 빛과 조명은 이러한 분위기를
가중시키며 전체 공간을 통합합니다.

Architecture studios FARM and KD Architects have converted a 1920s shophouse in Singapore into a residence with a swimming pool stretched along the ground floor.
Long, narrow shophouses are a typical building typology in Southeast
Asia and the Pool Shophouse is one of eight renovated properties in the Lorong 24A Shophouse Series, for which various architects were asked to adapt and extend properties in the Geylang neighbourhood.
Architects Tiah Nan Chyuan and Lee Hui Lian explain how they wanted to
create “an insertion” rather than “an extension” to the building. “One
experiences the continuity of space through a series of stairs that loop
through the shophouse,” they say.
The staircases they refer to zigzag back and forth through the house to
connect the three existing floors with the four-storey extension, which
contains bedrooms within its upper storeys.
Narrow strips of lighting highlight the gaps between these new staircases and the exposed brick walls of the original building.
Light filters into the house through a skylight at the centre, which is screened behind a louvred ceiling.
