This project investigates how a dwelling can be situated on a site that directly meets an expansive and richly layered natural environment.
In this context, the act of placing a building is understood not simply as locating a form on land, but as framing the lines of sight through which the inhabitant perceives and ultimately dwells within the landscape.
Seeing becomes an initial mode of inhabiting—defining how the body enters, adjusts, and becomes gradually absorbed into this environment.

The project begins with the ground itself: the texture of the earth under one’s feet, the slight rise and dip of the terrain, and the shifting density of the forest that frames each step.
As one approaches the entrance, the threshold becomes a moment of transition—opening the door unfolds the body into a space where interior and exterior are held in a loosely connected continuum.
Perception and bodily presence unfold together, allowing dwelling to emerge from a continuity of vision, movement, and atmosphere.

Within this modest scale, a wide spectrum of everyday sensations is carefully condensed.
The relaxed bend of the body finding its posture; the wind brushing through layers of trees; the subtle collision of leaves carried by the forest’s airflow; the blue sky widening above one’s gaze as light filters through the canopy—these ordinary yet vivid scenes form the experiential foundation of the house.
The dwelling becomes a vessel that gathers these temporal rhythms, holding them in a spatial framework that remains open, porous, and deeply connected to its surrounding landscape—an architecture in which seeing becomes dwelling.
