Winner Roominaroom London

摘要

Almost impossible to understand from photographs, this residential jewel was designed for a growing family with fixed walls. Since they couldn't expand upwards or outwards, Atmos Studio looked inwards and created an additional space which entirely redefines the idea of a mezzanine. Tucked into a corner to take up minimum area, inside it offers a sense of spaciousness. It was constructed from glued and screwed CNC-carved plywood sheets, each cut edge carefully profiled to soften the form of a warm, intimate, cosy domestic space where the performance of the structure and the pattern of the grain are fully expressed. A truck delivered the flat-packed project, which rapidly unfolded into a set of plywood ribs that were connected and erected within a day.
