Description
The line dividing work and personal life is getting blurry in this age of technology, and it’s no exception for architects. This personal project, the extension to the previous Studio Garage project, utilises a similar façade, but for a different purpose, and therefore a different type of commercial space is built inside it. Blurring the line of work and home life is exactly the desire behind this project. Krisna Cheung – architects and owners – aim to bring together the seriousness of work with the playfulness of their children, thus the Cubby Office, which allows them to monitor and connect with the kids during working hours. It is made possible by the perforated metal sheet which is used as the floor for the upper level. It serves as the element of surprise and playfulness – which identify it as the cubby space. It achieves both aesthetic and functional purpose; the translucent floor creates a feeling of a soaring, high ceiling for the otherwise tight space. The semi-solid floor also allows a more efficient use of lighting and energy. Whether it’s the heat coming from ground floor or the cool air from the air conditioning at the upper floor, it moderates the building’s temperature as a whole.
