BIRDHOUSE - single - family house

Daniela Georgieva, architect, Interior and Architectural Design
reference: House in Asamayama, Shinshiro, Japan / Kidosaki Architects Studio
The site is located in the southern outskirts of Sofia. It falls in the territories with limited values of the structural indicators beyond the ring road, just before the Vitosha mountain. This predetermines the small-scale character of the structures and the intended integration with the natural environment.
The property is accessible from the northwest. A river passes to the southeast, playing the role of a natural boundary.
In terms of context, the goal is to open the house to the surrounding environment by making good use of the terrain, the natural light, the courtyard and the favorable views - providing attractive views of Vitosha mountain from the second level.
In terms of functional zoning and volume-spatial composition, the focus is on both the combination of different scales - creating a sense of coziness, but also of spaciousness, as well as providing a variety of living spacescovered, semi-covered and open.
The house becomes a home, very personal and distinctive. The project is not intended to create the home of a particular person / family. It should provide good conditions for its owner to recognize it and name it, to fill it with life and events.
The house follows simple compositional principles.
The ground floor is occupied by day zone. It is structured on two levels. Main one at street level where an entrance hall, a kitchen and a dining room are placed with a link to an open terrace to the southwest. And a lowered half-level, following the natural descent of the terrain for a spacious living room connected to a courtyard by the close river. In this way several degrees of privacy are achieved.
The wooden floor follows the idea of directing and opening to the surrounding environment. The change of direction of the boards strengthen the connection both to the terrace to the southwest and to the terrace to the southeast. A sense of coziness and continuity of space inside and out is created.
The interior is bright and inviting, receiving its color thanks to the abundant natural daylight. Windows and doors, as well as furnishings such as tables, chairs and cabinets, are made of wood in a darker shade. Color elements and plants give each space a distinctive character.
The birdhouse provides a solid and safe shelter, but actually its main purpose is to be permeable and tempting to go outside.

project:
autor: team of architecture students from the local community of EASA: Boyan Tabov Ivan Plamenov Nina Krasteva
EASA (European architecture student assembly) operates as an educational platform in the periphery, organized by students for students, not as an alternative, but a field full of potential to enrich the university cores .
Students and young professionals from all universities in architecture work as network, combining their know-how and focusing on complex real issues.
One of the activities in the INCM (Intermediate National Contact Meeting) Vitosha 2018 project, initiated by EASA Bulgaria, was a series of exhibitions taking place in the three universities with architecture programs in Sofia, Bulgaria:
01 - VSU ‘Luben Karavelov’;
02 - New Bulgarian University;
03 - University of Architecture, Civil Engineering and Geodesy;
The aim of those exhibitions was to introduce the concept of EASA to a larger circle, using simple spaces integrated in the everyday learning environment of students.
For me, as a part of the team in charge of the curating process, was a great opportunity to experiment and gain experience in a peripheral of the pure architecture field.
The project included different tasks from generating the main concept to the material realization and integration of our ideas in a specific and vivid context.
