Architecture: Villa Topoject in Gyeonggido, Korea by AND

Would like to share with you today this beautiful villa Topoject in Gyeonggido, Korea by the company AND. The house is located in a small valley in a mountainous area near Seoul, Korea. While the valley slopes up, series of houses intermittently continue facing a 3 meter wide road. Instead of making walls or fences towards the road, the house gently lifts up the topography to form private spaces inside. The house opens up toward the south view and a small creek on the side.

It is a home for a couple who wants to enjoy rural life while still commuting to the city. It is a small house, but at the same time, it is a house that entails rich stories. The residents are in contact with land like farmers; also, they observe nature like tourists. I published this blogpost already on 03-12-2014. However, today I added some more information and photos and republished it again. Be Inspired ........

Thank you for reading this blogpost.
