This architectural project serves as both the architect's home and office, designed to encourage community interaction. The first floor functions as a welcoming space where neighbors can gather, with elements like a coffee area, communal bookshelves, and movie screenings fostering a café-like atmosphere. Architecturally, it blurs the lines between indoor and outdoor spaces to promote social connections. Additionally, a successful plant-sharing network shows community vitality, influencing the design which features greenery linked to local participation, aiming for a sustainable living environment despite potential future demographic challenges.
Hoping to avoid repeating the trajectory of past new towns, the architect believes the key to a sustainable community lies in residents continually thinking about their city as an extension of their daily lives.
By stacking these small ideas—extending daily life just a little—the project seeks to gently nurture connections between residents and the neighborhood.
The first floor features an office that also functions as an open space for the local community, creating a café-like atmosphere.
In this area, a plant-sharing network, originally started among a few neighbors, has expanded to dozens of households, demonstrating the neighborhood's vitality.
