Štajnhaus 게스트 하우스는 16세기경에 만들어진 문화기념물 건물을 리노베이션 한 것이다. 지난 시간동안 수많은 재건축과 개조, 역사적으로 상당한 피해를 얻은 건물을 원래 요소를 살리는 방향으로 복원하였다. 개조 공사를 통해 오래된 개구부와 숨겨져있던 돌계단도 발견하게 되었다. Located at the foot of Mikulov Castle, a fairytale landmark in the Moravian town of the same name (also known as Nikolsburg) in the Czech Republic, the Štajnhaus guest house has recently opened its doors to the public after being thoroughl..

법적인 제약으로 4층까지 허용되어 있는 이 지역에서 건축주는 5가구의 주택을 요청했다. 밀집된 거주 지역의 좁은 경사지역에 최대한의 공간을 확보하면서도 시야를 방해하지 않고, 통풍이 원할하고 주거 환경으로서의 개운성을 고려하려면 어떻게 해야할 지가 설계의 관건이었다. 결과적으로 자연과 도시가 뒤섞여 있는 이 곳에서 도시와 건축물의 명확한 경계선을 그리기 보단 환경과의 적당한 거리를 고려한 건축물이 탄생하였다. The site, an elongated square to the east and west, the frontage 7m, depth 20m, is located in the middle of a gentle plateau. Though the site frontage is narrow and lo..

협소주택의 장점은 무엇일까. 작은 집에 많은 사람들이 있을 때, 이들의 관계는 더욱 가까워진다. 물론 한두사람만이 있을 때도 이 공간에서 그들은 외로움보다는 차분한 감정을 느낀다. 주택의 온도를 쉽게 조절할 수 있다는 것뿐만 아니라 집이 한눈에 들어오므로 유지 보수가 쉽다. 이러한 몇가지 외에도 작은 공간이 주는 장점은 큰 공간의 장점보다 더 많다. The first time I went to see the building site for this project, I walked right past it. It was so small some people might have wondered why anyone would bother to build a house there in the first plac..
