The small and narrow site has an existing big tree in the front of the property that contributes shading and great view for studio. With 4 meter width, the studio with a high gable roof tends to deflect the sun heat and provided extra and relaxed space for studio. Due to the limitation, a toilet is located in the middle of stairway to allow natural ventilation for every floor
Section A
Variation of metal meshes was selected as a main material for a collaged façade which refers to TA-THA-TA’s identity which is collaborated design between architect and client. By providing a pattern outline, from architect and client selected a mesh pattern to complete a design. A full height window behind façade of studio and assembly area overlooks a variation pattern and serenity of a big tree. For interior decoration, ASWA providing space and materials finished, and furniture completed by TA-THA-TA to showcase their genuine identity.
