The 23.2 House Lampshade Interior Design
Which is located near the Vancouver, Canada, this 23.2 House is completed designed by the Canadian architect Omer Arbel. The 23.2 is a house for a family which is built on a large rural acreage outside Vancouver in the West Coast of Canada. The house is situated at the point of maximum tension in between these two environments, and as such at once to define the two as distrinct and also to offer a focused transition between them. There is a gentle slope from east to west and two masses of old growth forest defining two “outdoor rooms” each with a its own distinct ecology and conditions of light.
With a depository of one hundred year old Douglas Fir beams reclaimed from a series of the burned down ware-houses, the design of the house itself begin, as a point of the departure. The beams are of the different lenghts and it is cross the sectional dimensions and has astoinishing proportion, some as long as 20 meters, some as deep as 90 cm. It is agreed which the beams are sacred artefact in their current state and which they will not manypulate them or finish them in any way. Because the beams are of different lengths and sizes, the architect needed to com- mit to a geometry that will be able to accommodate the tremendous variety in di- mension, while still allowing the possibility of narrating legible spaces. The architec settled it on a triangular geometry.
To create the roof which will act as a secondary (and habitable) landscape, the architect folded the triangular frames wood which made of the reclaimed beams, drapping this artificial landscape over the gentle slope of the site. To create the implicit and the explicit relationships between the indoor and the outdoor space, the fold are manipulated, such which every interior room has a corresponding exterior room. The architect has been removed the definition of the one significant corner of reach room by pulling the structure back from the corner itself by using the bent steel column, it is achieved to maximize the ambiguity between the interior and the exterior space. Also large accordion door systems are introduced in these open corners so that the entire façade on both sides of each significant corner can retract and completely disappear.
