DESIGN NAME:
Village House at Clear Water Bay Garden
PRIMARY FUNCTION:
Residential Unit
INSPIRATION:
To relate elements that speak to our senses, a carved stone, a water surface and a deck structure are introduced. These components are arranged to create a series of sensory experience that can be appreciated from both the unit and the terrace.
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
Deep in the suburb of Hong Kong, a 700' ground floor unit of a local village house is set next to a 1,200' terrace with a glimpse of the South China Sea.
The design searches for a stronger coherency between the unit and the terrace as a means to embrace rural living. The constraint of the limited opening, which is the only connection between the unit and the terrace, becomes the challenge.
OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION:
On arrival, the carved stone that appears at the vanishing point sits in the open and also functions as a tea table looking to the sea and sky. A bare concrete wall stretches horizontally from the stone to the water to form an extended view that can be appreciated from the timber deck. The silhouette of the surrounding greeneries is reflected on the water surface, which also emits the sound of flowing water. At the connection between the unit and the terrace, the covered deck is positioned to provide a semi-open place that connects with nature, where one can meditate and a group can gather. The deck forms an aperture with the entrance portal to further the scene to the kitchen at the deep end of the interior.
PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION:
The project is located in Sai Kung, Hong Kong.

This project is simply stunning! The balance between form, function, and beauty is clear in this excellent residential unit. The attention to detail and the use of materials creates an aesthetic that is both unique and timeless. I am especially impressed by the way the interior space is utilized in order to create a cozy atmosphere. The finishing touches are also remarkable, making this a truly one-of-a-kind design. It is no surprise that this project has been honored with the prestigious A' Design Award. Well done to Plot Architecture Office on this amazing work!

I love the idea of using natural and tactile elements to create a sensory experience! The combination of stone and water is masterful and so inviting. The deck structure creates a cozy, inviting atmosphere that looks so inviting. This residential unit is truly a work of art and a great example of how interior design can create a space that is both aesthetically pleasing and functionally useful. It's no surprise that this project won the A' Design Award and I congratulate Plot Architecture Office on their success!
