This beautiful villa located in the suburb of Hebei in China\nis inspired by traditional Chinese houses while being part of modernity.\nSurrounded by an orchard, agricultural land and rivers, the environment offers\na beautiful setting for anyone who wants to settle away from the hustle and\nbustle of metropolises.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Originally, there was a wooden house with a typical\nstructure but was eventually destroyed by its owner in favor of a more modern\nand functional construction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The architects drew inspiration from the plan of traditional\nChinese houses, all of which have an inner courtyard. Only the main entrance\ndoor, followed by a second door still closed to protect the privacy of the\ninhabitants, opened on the outside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Like the “Siheyuan”, the house is turned inward,\nwith the various building blocks surrounding the central courtyard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

True living space, the central courtyard sheltered by a\nroof, is the epicenter of the family life. The four rooms in the villa are\narranged independently at the four corners, thus delimiting the house. These\nrooms are all facing inward and each of them incorporates a courtyard. At\ndifferent scales, these paths allow the house to bring natural light into the\ninteriors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The house includes private spaces and service areas:\nbedrooms with their bathrooms, an office, a kitchen, a technical room, all\nseparated from each other. Outdoor terraces extend these living spaces to enjoy\nthe surrounding nature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Archstudio has chosen to highlight the natural beauty of\nmaterials while playing on space and structure. The frame is made of steel and\nthe concrete slabs, which were poured on site. The interior and exterior walls\nwere treated the same way. Beige shale bricks are double-walled walls with\nthermal insulation in the center. This configuration, in addition to its\ninsulating function, makes it possible to hide the reinforcement, the piping\nand the electrical wires.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

In the courtyards, large areas of walls are hollow bricks,\nallowing natural ventilation and penetration of light. The roof is a wooden\nframe covered with carbonized wood tiles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Ideal for a break in the countryside, this house will offer\nmany activities for everyone in a variety of spaces and an airy, bright and\nwelcoming atmosphere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
