Swallow House

Swallow House

This house was rebuilt because of our client’s desire to return to his hometown. It is located along a street which slopes down a hill, where he used to play as a young boy. His parents' house is located on the opposite side of the street. We designed the floors and passages to restore the geographical features, and the exterior of the house appears like a shadow in the town that melts into the environment because of its connection to it.
