The Koma commercial development, designed by U.GA Architects, represents a transformation in the Haeridan-gil area. This location, previously characterized as a typical residential neighborhood, has been reconfigured into an urban landscape with strong cultural appeal through renovation processes.
In the alleys of this neighborhood, where old Western-style residences are revisited with sensitive approaches, new stories are created in every small space. In this context, the value of architecture is measured not only by its physical dimension but also by the attitude and harmony it manages to establish.
At the sharp meeting point of these alleys, the project named 'Koma' is positioned in a delicate border area.
The CASAVIVA / SHROFFLEóN Residence was conceived as an interaction between architectural design and landscape. This project transforms the residence into a succession of environments where natural elements are fundamentally integrated into the daily life of the residents.
The project was presented with the description provided by the design team. More details about the work can be accessed through the project gallery.
The design team provided the description of this development, which consists of a single-family residence located in Kinuta, in the Setagaya district. The surroundings of the lot were characterized by large Japanese red pines and traditional buildings.
From the moment the site was observed, there was a desire to conceive a house that would integrate organically with the surrounding landscape.
The project was presented on the ArchDaily platform in Portuguese.
