Located around mountains and by the river, the original house is actually not ideal. The almost roughcast old house has many large beams and columns, with the biggest one making the house just 215cm high. Divided with cross beams, the space is delimited into public and private domain. The bedroom, storage, hallway and even kitchen and dining area are all set around the center of the space, sparing a spacious space for the public domain. Next, the cross beam divides the space for two purposes: one for the cabinets in the piano room and the other for storage and TV wall in the master bedroom.
