设计师认为可以建筑师的身份从空间和观念,印象的类型和角度来研究这个空间,设计这个空间,他认为这很有趣,也有挑战,所以接受了这个项目的室内空间设计工作。就普遍的住宅楼室内设计而言,普通的设计方式与设计手法很难带来空间的新鲜感。来自北京的业主夫妇和设计师讨论时,表达他们需要一种不同的生活方式和感受,需要类似传统北京“胡同”中的空间感受(并仅两人和宠物在此居住)。
The designer took on this home space design because it has an interesting look at the typology of concept and space design.For the public stereotypes of home space design,it is difficult to bring in any kind of freshness.The BeiJing couple went to discuss with and told the designer that they need a different way of living,maybe just like living in “hutong” (and only two of them and pets live here).

因此设计师基于“内巷”的概念,在设计的过程中尝试很多的可能性,而在建造的过程中尽可能使用普通的建造、装修方法去实现和表达它。设计师执行了很多他们称为空间的“搭载”与“卸载”设计,在这个过程中他意识到这个空间的隐私性与开放度之间的关系和比例是设计的重点。他敏感地和认真地对待着这有趣矛盾,所以当业主想要更多隐私和隔离时,业主使用格栅、窗帘等构造,而当业主需要更多的宽阔空间和开放度时,则不使用。
So the designer conceptualized the whole design basing on the idea of lanes and how to actually use it possibility.He can perform many of their so-called space”loading”.”uninstalling” and “building up inside” designs.In this process the designer carefully maintained the balance because he realized it has the strong contradiction between privacy and openness.So when the hosts want more privacy and isolation,they use something like the grills,curtains,and when the hosts need more space and openness, they don’t.

Actually the designer removed some of the walls to create the new compounded rooms in order to expend the double or triple-size space, also the space was very boxy, because it is a typical living space which would probably be normal and boring without removing walls, and he conceptualized the different types of the block rooms as the space with different function and each one have two connection points at least like holes, windows, or doors, forming the effect that spatial flowing and wall covering. So it’s kind of like” a block within a block”, “a lane within a lane”.Provided with more pluralistic space and freedom to experience the space connection, the hosts have more opportunities to create the possibility and beauty of their own way of life, communicating with each other through different space connections which give people the chance to see or talk with the others.

Walking down the corridor in the middle of the house is the privacy block of the owners, something, such as the windows, curtains, partition doors and grills that hinders vision or shut out light, not only for the host’s privacy, but for the openness.So when hosts close all the wooden and mirror doors, they all look like they’re been largely cut off from the outside world, the only thing left is a very central space with a series of spatial ritual.

So the hosts can choose to have meal or work at the kitchen,bedroom,living room,in the regular desk. See and feel the scale and state of the whole space at the same time it greatly improves the host’s perception and efficiency in the overall space especially in this expensive city.The designer just utilized a few treatments for the materials,like stone,wood,metal and glass,like what they natural look like using in the project.He use the materials and construction methods that are compatible with the interior and exterior,and create a lot of grey space to make people feel more open in space and the atmosphere harmonious.The designer indexed that Alvar Aalto posed a metaphor in article “natural reproduction”,“the space created by architects should be harmonious,the most basic one used for weaving is the line of human emotions and the mutual communication”.

The designer said, the spirit of home living is the issue that has always been really obsessed him, not only because he was asked to design a lot of different private home spaces, but he feel that the design theme for shelter and the home is the beginning and intention of architecture and also the interior design. The designer said, one of the biggest challenges in this work, for this space, for an architect, is the answer that“which way people take to living in this space”.He think the answer is the method and the way of this design and construction process that he has never stop feeling, adjusting and optimizing for. So in the process of design the designer tried to get rid of the influence of elements such as shape, color, etc., and tried to pay attention on the ritual and way of life.
