twin-walls house in hillside, Chengdu, Sichuan, China

this is a villa for one family which has 4 peoples, husband, wife & two kids. located in a hillside riverbank, the site is facing to the river and crowded with lots of natural landscape. the opposite of the river is also focal landscape-view which forms the visual axis of the site. in this project, we will deal with 4 problems, as follow: 1.we tries to let the building naturally lie in the riverbank & match terrain without destroying valuable elements of surrounding, so that we set up twin-walls to suit the terrain line & determinate levels of each space to balance the terra; 2.main view direction will face the river and its opposite to exploit the remarkable landscape of the site, also we will maintain the natural visual axis. 3. most of plants in the site will be reserved to a comfortable inner-environment and make the house undercover in it; 4. the main idea of that project is that we attempt to interesting spaces to fit the complex s of daily life by using the minimum wall, and this purpose will be realized by the two subtle twisted walls. the building formed by twin-walls has graceful contour, mutative & artistic quality that also match the status of the client who is an artist.
