The Haines House Window Design
The living space project which is called The Haines House is completed designed by the Australian architect Christopher Polly based in Sydney, Australia. This living space project is precisely located in the inner city of Sydney suburb of Newtown, it is the area where steadily displaying the evidence of the gentrification in the general upgrade of the surrounding urban fabric. This house project is covers a project area for about 115 square meters and the landscape area for about 58 square meters, it is constructed in 2010.
Comprise of predominantly single storey attached and semi-detached residences with the interminent of the two storey dwelling a 3 to 4 storey apartment blocks is the immediate context of this living space design. The proposal is involved the complete refurbishment of an existing single storey semi-detached dwelling, with the addition of an open plan volume beyond the original rear existing roof plane, to improve the physical and visual relationships to the new rear garden, while harnessing improved access to the sunlight, natural ventilation and the views to borrowed the landscape and the sky beyond it.
The generation of the design is entailed into the two formal strategies; first to generate the form of the singular roof and the ceiling plane, a clear response to place in three acts is involved extrapolating the line of the rear roof pitch of the immediate adjoined dwelling, it is extruding this to the extent of the rear setback alignment of this adjoined dwelling in plan, followed by the extension of an existing low roof level along the unadjoined eastern edge to the new rear footprint which is placed under along ‘working wall’ spine accommodates the kitchen, the storage and the varying configurations of the joinery, extending outside to accommodate a second toilet with the basin.
The second strategies, to stitch and enmesh an alternating sequence of compression and the expansion, the retention of the original front dwelling and centrally located the bathroom is enabled old and new fabric. It is enfolding a series of the expressed rooms from the narrow hall and the front cellular three room layout, it is to open release in a newly accommodates Living room which is followed by a compressed scale shift and downward change in the level via an almost secreted passage into the new heightened rear openness of a Dining, Kitchen and the Second Living Space.
To establish a datum which is scribed the alignment of all elements and wrapped around the interior of the rear volume, the height of the low roof is served, it is setting the heights of the rear steel door head and the sliding doors, timber board wall linings, timber board which is lined by laundry units and the new wall heights of the retained bathroom.
Fixed highlight is glazing finely and connects these newly established bathroom wall heights with the singular ceiling plane, enclosing it from surrounding spaces while borrowing the light from the three directions. An arrangement of the fine steel plate is supports and banks of the highlight louvered and fixed windows are march along and above the entire eastern low roofed working wall, bridging the high and low roofs and wrapping to the rear southern orientation, while a series of pocket concealed timber framed sliding doors extend the living spaces onto a roofed terrace that directly connects to the enclosed private garden and surrounding borrowed landscape beyond.
