Located in an urban block of North Vancouver, this house turns inward to escape the bustling crowd and traffic by creating a private central courtyard with a maple tree, which originally stood on the edge of the lot, as its heart. We shifted the spacial focus from the external to the internal by staggered walls and eaves of varying heights serving as the transition medium,

We believe that Beauty lies not only in the objects themselves, but also in the shadows and patterns born between them. As the sun, the moon and the stars cycling through different time and seasons, the ever-changing patterns of light and shadow casting onto the warm concrete, dancing across the interiors, Every room comes alive with this natural choreography, offering the owners a deeply poetic and ever-renewing living experience. This is a house full of life and hopefully, will never grow old.
