폴딩, 비워진 공간 이야기.
젊은 벨기에 조각과 건축을 겸하는 아티스트를 위한 주거프로젝트 입니다.
극도로 절제된 건축은 대지의 경사면을 따라 흘러가며 콘크리트 구조물로 접혀진
오픈 스페이스를 형성합니다. 이렇게 형성된 극적인 건축공간은 벽과 지붕으로 접혀진 콘크리트 구조물과
스틸 글래스 윈도우 내부에 숨겨진 스틸 기둥으로 구축되어
건축적 순수함을 탐닉하는 건축주의 지향점을 적나라하게 보여줍니다.
특히 조각, 예술작품? 과 건축의 경계선상에서 유니크한 심미적인 미를 보여주는
주거는 현대 생활 속의 플렉시블함을 함축적으로 축약시킨 제스쳐로 읽혀지기도 합니다.
이렇게 비워진 공간은 불필요한 요소들이 제거되고 순수함만 남아
자연속으로 사라지는 색다른 경험을 만들어 냅니다.

Young Belgian sculptor and architect Stijn Ank
has recently completed a residential project in the city of Aspelare,
Belgium. This is a residence for artists, conceived as an empty, open
space defined by three concrete "folds" and enveloped by glass walls.
Cast on site, the concrete follows the slope of the land, and is
paradoxically supported by slender steel columns positioned behind the
glass envelope. Architecture and sculpture come together in a unique,
essential gesture, emphasising the openness and flexibility of this new
concept of contemporary living.
The search for a unification of structure and architecture reduces
construction to its basic principles. All unnecessary elements have been
removed in favour of an open space where the heavy concrete structure
appears to gravitate. "Architecture is a primary act exerted on the
landscape," says the architect, "it is impossible to speak of three
roofs or three walls, but rather one big void."
The concept of the room is completely abolished. Using furniture to
define spaces, everything becomes "mobile". Thus, furniture defines
mobile spaces — a kitchen, a bed — preserving the void as an open,
flexible space
