WARchitect | 曼穀天台上的無邊小屋-設計風向

WARchitect設計了泰國曼穀的skyscape住宅，其獨特的位置位於一棟5層公寓樓的頂部。屋頂以前隻是用來儲存水箱，留下了廣闊的空間。因此，屋主決定建造一座小房子供自己使用。房子有一個混凝土庭院而不是正常的地麵層，而樹木則被周圍建築物的垂直線所取代。

with a unique location on top of a 5-story apartment building, WARchitect has designed the skyscape residence in bangkok, thailand. the rooftop was previously only used to store water tanks, leaving an expanse of empty space. the owner, therefore, decided to build a small house for his own use. given its unusual context, the house has a concrete courtyard instead of a normal ground floor while trees are replaced with the vertical lines of surrounding buildings.

為了避免在房子和下麵的公寓之間形成鮮明的對比，團隊特意使它不能從公共道路上看到。我們的想法不是讓公寓感覺像是一座建築，而是像一個無邊無際的盒子，在天空中無處不在。目的是為旁觀者創造一種錯覺，即整個天花板都在同一條直線上，即使它有一個斜坡，故意用來使牆壁和天花板看起來很薄。

to avoid creating a stark contrast between the house and the apartment below, the team designed the project so that it could not be seen from public roads. the idea was not to make the apartment feel like a building, but like a borderless box that emerges out of nowhere in the sky. the intention was to create an illusion to onlookers that the entire ceiling is in the same straight line even though it features a slope that is intentionally employed to make the wall and ceiling appear thin.

關於功能，業主希望房子能夠簡單地供他私人使用。考慮到這一點，建築師認為讓房子看起來比平常更“裸露”會很有趣。每個房間之間的邊界由一個中央庭院連接，而功能區域根據公寓下方柱網劃分，形成一個六格布局。

regarding the function, the owner wanted the house to be simple for his private use. taking this into account, the architect thought that it would be interesting to make the house appear more ‘naked’ than usual. the boundary between each room is linked by a central courtyard, while the functional area is divided according to the grid of the apartment’s pillars underneath, resulting in a six-grid layout.

前部分由三個網格組成，作為用餐區，一個客廳和一個臥室，業主可以通過一個大的滑動玻璃門欣賞全景。後麵的部分由剩餘的三個網格組成，它們被用作浴室，一個可以從房子的任何地方看到的庭院和一個廚房。由於業主已經擁有大量的balau木板，因此它們被用作包層材料。

the front section consists of three grids which are used as a dining area, a living room and a bedroom where the owner can enjoy a panoramic view through a large sliding glass door. the back section consists of the remaining three grids which are used as bathrooms, a courtyard that can be seen from anywhere in the house and a kitchen. since the owner already had a large number of balau wood planks, they were used as the cladding material.
