About Shared Yard Casa per ospiti
Shared Yard è una casa per ospiti in ambiente rurale situata a Pechino, in Cina. Shared Yard è nata dalla ricostruzione di un'abitazione abbandonata tipica della Cina settentrionale, con infissi in legno, muri in mattoni e tetti in tegole. La vecchia casa è stata conservata e collegata a nuovi volumi realizzati in lamiera di acciaio al carbonio, calcestruzzo e finiture in rovere bianco. Gli alberi esistenti ombreggiano i nuovi volumi, collocati in posizioni ventilate in modo che d'estate non sia necessaria l'aria condizionata. L'acqua piovana e l'acqua depurata vengono utilizzate per irrigare i campi circostanti.

- Design Challenge
- How to make an eco-friendly building? We used suitable construction methods and old materials recycled from the village to eliminate the invasion. The new buildings are under the shade of trees we preserved, being designed in a ventilated position so that air conditioning is unnecessary in summer. All the fruits and vegetables needed for life come from the surrounding vegetable fields and orchards. Rainwater and purified living water are used to irrigate the fields through a drainage system.
- Research
- How to treat traditional architecture is always an important issue in rural construction. The old houses on the site are typical of rural dwellings in northern China, with wooden window frames, brick walls and tiled roofs that have survived for generations. So our team first preserved the old house carefully and then connected it to the new building. We used old materials recycled from the village to complete the dialogue between traditional dwellings and contemporary architecture.
- Inspiration
- For architects, it is hard to find the possibility of diversified development of city and nature, while the countryside with rustic charm is a fertile land of hope, which is enough to rebuild the relationship among humankind, architecture and nature, internalize and shape tradition and current local culture, thus making them become visible and perceivable forms and symbols and permeate into the life.
- Project Duration
- The project started in May 2019 and finished in October 2019 in Beijing, China.
- Operation Flow
- The abandoned house was reconstructed, and the completed buildings not only brought the rural experience to the urbanites, but also provided the villagers with a more advanced community environment and gradually increasing income.
While attracting tourists and driving the new economy, the yard built based on local culture, inspiring villagers to get a new understanding of their local and cultural value, offering a new choice of selecting an occupation and building a living space. - Image Credits
