Chongqing JIAOYUAN

Farmhouse

Chongqing Jiaoyuan is a two-story residential building. It provides three bedrooms, a living room, a kitchen, a study, and etc. The site is a typical rural site in southwestern China, surrounded by forests, farmlands, and rolling hills but also with a broad and open view. And there are several old trees that are reserved from the original site. In terms of architecture, the spatial layout employs the courtyard as the core while separating the walls which embrace nature, functional rooms, and circulation-aiming corridors from the building. These three elements form an individually-independent but mutually-dependent system.
