SHORT DESCRIPTION

This project features residential building designs that embody the practical aesthetics of the Scandinavian style, with a focus on simplicity and rationality without losing warmth and personal touch. What sets this design apart is its use of aluminum alloy formwork from the planning stage, allowing for more precise construction compared to other similar architectural works. During the initial design phase, the team discovered that the project had a long and flat base. Therefore, the team has discussed the product's position with the owner to ensure compliance with regulatory restrictions. The team analyzed the base environment, created an atmosphere for the home return route, designed public spaces, and developed floor plans for the residential units. They carefully considered each corner of the building, from massive to micro, and infused each residential unit with a unique life story through various functional activities. Throughout the design planning stage, the team employed the use of Aluminum Formwork Systems and BIM design to effectively modularize design dimensions in increments of 5cm. While taking into consideration various engineering constraints and making necessary adjustments to the architectural plan, the building naturally formed into a symmetrical volume. Initially, the team had intended to create an upright visual effect with vertical lines for the building's exterior design, but upon completion, they found the outcome to be unsatisfactory. After engaging in numerous internal discussions and making several adjustments, the team was able to create a rhythmic sense of staggered, horizontal stacking in a different direction, which ultimately yielded a more appealing aesthetic. Furthermore, the team deliberately retracted the sloping frame of the roof to add interesting and unique ideas to the design.
