As described by the Dim Studio, the structure of this residence mainly comprises distinct contrasts: 

• Square – Round
• Curved – Straight

If we talk about the main shape of the house, it is a rectangle. However, you can see many other shapes are gracefully used in various parts of the house.

You might be wondering why designers go with a rectangle shape only? This is because this home works as a living entity. This way, it beautifully connects people with complementary nature and also blends to exist.

In addition to that, different activities done by various people creates a different spatial picture. This all creates a visually appealing, aesthetically pleasing house. 

Construction Of Hana House

Let’s talk about the construction process and design analysis of this project. As we already told you, the homeowner’s original desire was to avoid interacting with the outside space. So, architects have used a contrasting structure with simple squares.

In simple words, they use square structures that are wrapped around the outside. In comparison, the winding lines and complex interlocking structures have been used in the interiors of the space.

This makes an excellent contrast between simple exteriors but complex interiors. Instead of focusing too much on the exteriors and outdoor designs, architects have created creative and interactive interior spaces.

Exteriors & Interiors of Hana House

Just take a glance at the outside of this house. Doesn’t it just look like a white rectangle box? As we already told you before, architects have kept the exteriors as simple as possible. That’s why from the outside, it simply looks like a big white house, but from the inside, it is so unique and outstanding.

The main entrance opensentrance is opens ed with a large gate, and the path gradually narrows towards the door. Whenever people enter through this gate, it creates a feeling of narrowness in them. But that’s where you’ll get a surprise. Yes, because just after this narrowing area, there is a huge and completely open space.

A well spacious corridor connects living space, kitchen, living, and resting space. There are also straight stairs curving right along with the walls. This is again promoting the contrasting image and also creates an interesting frame.

Let’s go a little more inside the space. Here you can see there is a winding core space. It was specifically created to create an interesting viewing experience for the inhabitants of the residence. According to the architects, “the hollow part is the lung of the house.” The reason behind constructing this area is that here light, wind, and trees are concentrated altogether.

Apart from these functions, this core also connects the spaces using the kitchen, living room. This wonderfully blurs the boundary between inside and outside and brings nature indoors for a serene living experience. All these things make a happy and livable atmosphere for the family.
