EDGE HOUSE

An architecture limited to the interior, even if it is on a green background and the whole forest is visible from behind the glass, is nothing but the accumulation of materials and following the conventional construction methods. Consequently, living in such a space will lead neither to a change in human behavior nor a better understanding of nature. Today, with the increasing demand for small-scale modular houses, a deeper link between architecture and nature must definitely be defined through a third space called “interface space” or “connecting space” to blur the line between nature and the body of architecture. Inspired by this kind of view, this project attempts to be part of the realm of nature in harmony with different contexts and improve the functional aspects of modular houses. In fact, the project is inspired by the spatial relationships of rural houses that can both act independently and form a modular village in connection with each other. This project is made of a combination of two cubic and sloping modules with dimensions of four and a half meters long with a width and height of two meters and eighty centimeters. The sloping modules are located on four cubic modules. This sloping roof is suitable for collecting rainwater, placing solar panels, sleeping space, rest and storage water tank for the bathroom and provides more height for window lighting. Although each house can operate independently, the connection between them is possible through wooden suspended decks that are one meter above the ground and can be easily opened and closed. This spatial relationship can have different arrangements according to lighting conditions, topography, landscape and viewing angle and can be easily changed. Four houses were selected for living that can be attached to each other or connected to each other through wooden decks. Each function has its own spatial organization and can be changed according to the client’s wishes. For example, the working space can be placed with the bathroom and the WC, or the sleeping and working space can be together so that even a final module can be ordered.
