定海台房·舟山（建成）-
杭州
A residential precedent demonstrating how staggered gabled volumes, stone terracing, and continuous interior sightlines integrate a hillside building with its natural landscape.
- What we like about this project
- Framed interior openings create a series of layered internal frames that align directly with outdoor courtyard trees.

- Geometry
- Interlocking gabled volumes step down sloping terrain with open corner glazing and multi-level floor plates.
- Facade system
- Punched large-format glazing and smooth white plaster walls sitting atop dry-stacked stone bases.
- Structural guess
- Timber roof truss system over concrete and masonry bearing walls.
- Spatial scale
- Domestic multi-level residential scale with soaring ceiling heights under open timber trusses.
- Lighting
- Bright daylight entering through large orthogonal glass panels, casting soft highlights across white walls and polished floors.
- Atmosphere
- Serene and light-filled, balancing rustic stone and timber elements with clean modern white surfaces.
- Environmental context
- Surrounded by lush green sloping woodland and terraced dry-stone retaining walls.
- Spatial experience
- The interior flows continuously through large framed openings, connecting sunken living levels with elevated timber-roofed spaces and framed exterior garden views.
- Composition rhythm
- Rhythms of timber roof beams echoed by steady vertical alignments in the glazing and dry-stone masonry joints.
