The simpler a design is, the more classic and easier on the eyes it will be. Creativity of a design is the key to highlighting the beauty of a space. Hill House is a filming studio located on Mt. Dadu in Taichung. Its owner, after taking its future expansion and the budget into account, opts for a container house to build his dream office space.
The designer first covers the surface of the container house with a thin aluminum plate both to enhance its water-proof and anti-fouling functions and to accentuate its chic and Avant-garde keynote. Additionally, in the front of the house is a wood-pallet platform that elevates the foundation of the house to prevent it from being bothered by ground humidity and bugs. H-shaped steel is further used on the platform to reinforce stability of the house as well as supporting canopy above the platform. In this way, not only is rain kept out, but the practicality of the platform is strengthened. This also adds a rough and coarse feel to the entire house. To meet future needs, a charging pile is affixed to one of the H-shaped steel bar to charge electric vehicles right there. The needs for technology, environmental protection and personalized requirements are met all at once.
Owing to the heat and humidity of the climate in Taiwan, the mezzanine at the top of the container house is outfitted with thermal insulation glass to keep heat from getting inside from above. Vegetation is also planted to make the surroundings filled with greenery to resolve the problem of scorching heat in mid-summer and to create a pleasant work environment for all four seasons. The façade of the container house is fitted with large glass windows, so that natural light can be ushered in and ventilation is enhanced to maintain good air quality.
