这个项目的所有者经营着一座5层的公寓。以前，天台只用于放水箱，留下许多空地。所以房主想在那里建一座小房子供他们自己使用。这是一处有趣而独特的环境，使得该项目有别于其他住宅设计。这座房屋没有平坦的地面，而是有一个水泥庭院。这些树木被 Lat Phrao地区高层建筑的垂直线条所代替，入口层的标高就有15米。另外，这座房子只有正面，从侧面和背面看都看不见。为了避免这座房子和下面的公寓产生强烈的对比，我们的团队精心设计了这座房子，这样就没人能在公共道路上看到了。

The project’s owner runs a 5-story apartment. In the past, the rooftop was only used to keep water tanks, leaving a lot of empty space. The owner, therefore, wished to build a small house there for his own use. The rooftop location is an interestingly unique context that sets this project apart from other housing designs. Instead of a normal ground, this house has a concrete courtyard. Treesare replaced with vertical lines of tall buildings in the Lat Phrao district. The0.00 ground level is elevated to the level of over 15.00 meters.In addition, this house wouldhave only the front façade and could not be seen from the side and the back.To avoid creating a stark contrast between this house and the apartment below, our team designedthis house so that no one could see it from public roads.

我们的想法不是要让这栋房子感觉像一栋建筑，而是要让它摆脱形式的束缚。我们希望它只是一个凭空出现在天空中的无边框体量，仿佛墙体和屋顶的厚度都不存在，但仍然可以在天花板上开孔，安装窗帘、空调和嵌入灯光。尽管我们的屋顶是斜的，但我们的目的是给旁观者一种错觉，整个天花板在同一条直线上，让墙和天花板看起来很薄，这些技巧在建筑中也许并不新鲜。但是，这个屋顶的房子比较特别，因为主体结构和外部之间的距离很短，有助于掩盖我们使用的技术。

Our idea was not to make this house feel like a building, but to free it from form. We wanted it to be just a borderless box that emerges out of nowhere in the sky, as if the thickness of the wall and roof were non-existent, but still able to make holes in the ceiling to install curtains, air conditioners, and embed lights. Our intention was togive an illusion to onlookers that the entire ceiling was in the same straight line even thoughwe featureda drop ceiling and a slopethat was intentionally used to make the wall and ceiling look thin. Thesetechniques may not be new in architecture. However, with this rooftop house, it is more special since a short distance between the main structure and the exteriorhelps disguise the techniques we used.

在功能方面，由于主人不经常接待客人，所以希望房子能简单的供他私人使用。考虑到这一点，我们认为让这栋房子看起来比平时更 "裸露"会很有趣，每个房间之间的边界由一个庭院连接，功能区根据公寓柱子下面的网格划分，形成了六格布局。前段由三个格子组成，它们分别作为1.餐厅2.客厅和3.卧室，主人可以通过一扇大的推拉玻璃门看到全景，当推拉门关闭时，门框会正好在一根小柱子后面，给人一种这栋楼没有柱子的感觉。后面的部分由剩下的三个格子组成，这三个格子被用作4.浴室5.从房子的任何地方都可以看到的庭院6.厨房。由于业主已经有了大量的Balau木板，我们用它们作为覆盖材料。即使有些木板有裂缝、虬结、锯痕、颜色不均等缺陷，我们也将其视为真木的自然魅力，所以我们没有必要将其丢弃。当施工完成后，最终完成的是一个 "空间"，木头的暖色和天空的冷色调，正是我们想要的。

Concerning the function, the owner wanted the house to be simple for his private use as he did not frequently receive guests. Taking this into account, we thought that it would be interesting to make this house look more “naked” than usual. The boundary between each room is linked by a courtyard. The functional area is divided according to the grid of the apartment’spillarsunderneath, resulting in a six-grid layout.The front section consists of three grids which are used as 1. a dining area2. a living room and 3. a bedroom where the owner can see a panoramic view through a large sliding glass door, which when slid close, the door frame will be precisely behind a small pillar, giving an impression that this building does not have a pillar. The back section consists of the remaining threegrids which are used as 4. bathrooms 5. a courtyard that can be seen from anywhere in the houseand 6. a kitchen.Since the owner already had a large number of Balau wood planks, we used them as the covering material. Even some planks have defects such as cracks, gnarls, marks from saws, and uneven colors, we see them as a natural charm of real wood, so we did not need to discard any of them. When the construction was finished, the final result is a “space” completed with the warm color of wood and the cool tone of the sky, just exactly as we wanted it to be.
