計画地は東西に細長く、西に行くほど狭まった変形敷地である。周囲は家が近接し、西側には高架の陸橋が見える決して恵まれた環境ではないが、道路を隔てた東側にはお社の森が迫り、昔ながらの地域のつながりも感じられる場所である。施主はこの場所に、今まで共に過ごしてきた愛着のある家具や調度類とともに、こじんまりと心静かに過ごすことができる住まいを望んだ。
多様な周辺環境要素の中で、将来的な環境の変化にもゆるがない寡黙な佇まいと、小さいながらも適度な光に包まれ、変形の敷地形状を受け入れる鷹揚な居場所としてのすまいを目指すこととなった。
敷地に沿った平面形状としながらも、南北境界線沿いに、互い違いに植栽スペースを設け、居住空間が緑の光に囲まれる構成とした。
屋根形状は敷地の幅が広くなるほど高くなる東西長手方向に勾配を付けた切妻屋根であり、もっとも敷地の幅が広くなるところが棟となる断面形状としている。棟を境に東西に床をスキップさせ、薪ストーブのある半地下空間をつくることで、建物高さを抑え、周囲の家並みと調和を図ると同時に、明るく天井の高いダイニングと対照的な、炎がゆらぎ、ほの暗く懐に抱かれるような場所(イングルヌック)をつくることができた。
この切妻屋根の本屋に付属するように、隣家が近接する南側の玄関・水回り部分は下屋として小さな片流れ屋根を設け、隣家に対する圧迫感をさらに和らげる形とした。この二つの屋根は東の端で上下に重なり合い、人をこの住まいへと導くアプローチ空間をつくりだしている。
Clay Tiny House Ideas and Designs
With so much attention devoted to interior design, the exterior of a home can often get overlooked, but as the first thing that welcomes both us and our guests, it is worth devoting some time tending to the outside of your house. Furthermore, focusing on the kerb appeal of your home can add significant value if and when it comes time to sell up. Georgian, Edwardian and Victorian homes, with their bay windows and elegant plasterwork, often benefit from built in architecture advantages, but even if your house design is unassuming from the outside, small decorative and structural improvements to the exterior of your home can equal huge impact. Key areas of building design to focus on are the front door, the driveway or approach to your home, the porch area, the windows, the facade and the roof. And just a note of caution... before any significant exterior architecture gets under way, check first whether you need planning permission for your exterior house designs– this applies particularly to listed houses or buildings in a conservation area, but it’s better to be safe than sorry. Take a look through the house designs, exterior architecture and images of front doors and driveways on Houzz to inspire your facade or building design, or read on for a few more pointers when it comes to redesigning your exterior.
How do I give my home an exterior facelift?
You may feel like your home’s exterior architecture is unalterable but there are a wide range of options available to improve its external building design, no matter what raw materials you begin with. Begin with the front door and the pathway or driveway that lead up to your home as these are easy to improve without huge budgets. A driveway or pathway must be kept neat and tidy and you can consider replacing tarmac with attractive tiles or gravel. Repainting or replacing the fence, wall or gate that fronts your home can also offer an overnight transformation without breaking the bank. An area to not cut corners however is the front door, where spending a little extra can make a huge difference in quality, and painting it in a colour you love will pay you back every time it welcomes you home! Updating your windows can be a significant building design project but it is one that has benefits both inside and out, as well as potentially saving you money on energy later. If you are lucky enough to have period windows such as bay windows with sash or leaded windows, then maintaining them should be a top priority, but if they are beyond repair then there are plenty of window professionals that will offer modern, double or triple glazed equivalents that could still work in your bay window. Working with uPVC? Not a problem – the best improvement you can make is to ensure your windows are the right size and shape for your home's overall proportions.How do I update my home’s facade?
When it comes to updating the facade of your home, painting is the quickest and most affordable way to achieve a makeover, and if you opt for a colour other than white it can really make a statement (although sticking within the palette of your road and local area is advisable). A makeover that requires a bit more patience but can add romance and character to the most mundane of homes is to adorn the walls with climbing plants – delicate trailing wisteria is ever a British favourite, whilst roses and jasmine offer fragrance as well as beauty. If you’re looking to make more significant changes to the exterior of your home, whether that is adding timber cladding, hanging tiles, installing a bay window or rendering, then you should first check whether your house designs require planning permission. A New England style wood boarded home is beautiful and bright, but remember that it will need frequent repainting if it is going to stay looking its best, whilst stucco render or Tyrolean render can tidy up a home's exterior but think carefully before covering over original brickwork.What should I consider if building a home from scratch?
If you’re working with an architect on a brand new build, the options are endless when it comes to deciding on the exterior architecture. But first things first, you will need to check planning permissions, building regulations and local restrictions, such as being in a conservation area, to make sure your plans for your exterior house designs will meet stipulations. If you are building in a street with predominantly Victorian facades, with bay windows and side returns, you might need to ensure your house designs fit in with the rest of the homes on the street, but if you’re building in a more remote area you’ll probably have more freedom for your building design. There are many architectural decisions to make, do you want a flat, gabled, hipped, mansard or perhaps even a curved roof? Do you want bay windows? Crittall windows? Perhaps external shutters? Do you want glass walls? Do you want wood cladding? Do you want a very symmetrical building design or something more contemporary? The decision is all yours but remember to consider the benefits of various materials over others and the effects that some architecture styles will have on everyday life, for example glass walls will look attractive but will give you less privacy. Your architect or builder will be able to guide you through the best exterior architecture choices for your house designs.1
