U HouseU House is defined by a spatial ambiguity—open yet enclosed, continuous yet divided. The house unfolds as a sequence of rooms that can either merge into one fluid space or close into intimate enclosures. Transparency and opacity alternate, allowing the dwelling to adapt to changing conditions of privacy, light, and mood.
Upon entering, a single framed window draws the visitor forward through a narrow corridor toward the light beyond. This movement from darkness to brightness establishes the project’s central theme: the choreography of contrast. The architecture stages a dialogue between exposure and retreat, between the dense and the diffuse.
Light becomes both material and guide. Openings are precisely placed to shape perception rather than simply illuminate. The shifting qualities of daylight articulate boundaries and dissolve them in turn, transforming the house throughout the day.
Constructed with clarity and restraint, U House is less a static composition than a spatial instrument—an architecture that invites variation and inhabitation. It explores how form and light can create emotional resonance within the everyday, offering spaces that hold both seclusion and openness in delicate balance.
