About this project |
The house design project located at Soi Suanpak 38 - Phutthamonthon Sai 1 has been an exciting challenge for the design team. The owner wanted to expand the house for their newly married couple, which meant building a new apposition building. The design team was careful to create a design that would not only improve the house's functionality but also ensure that the new building blended in with the existing structure.
One of the primary objectives of the design team was to make sure that the two buildings did not separate from each other. The idea was to link the buildings in a way that would make them feel like one cohesive structure, much like a family. This meant that the team needed to consider the appearance and structure of the new building carefully.
The design team began by studying the existing structure and identifying the key features that needed to be retained. They also took into consideration the surroundings and the area's overall aesthetic. Based on these factors, the team designed the new building to complement the existing structure's design language.
One of the most significant challenges the team faced was ensuring that the new building's structure was compatible with the existing one. They spent considerable time examining the structure and identifying any potential weaknesses or conflicts that could arise. The team ultimately came up with a plan that would ensure that the two buildings were structurally linked while maintaining their unique identities.
The design team also paid special attention to the internal layout of the new building. They designed it to meet the newly married couple's needs while also ensuring that the spaces flowed seamlessly with the existing structure. This meant that the new building needed to have a similar architectural style and complement the existing layout.
