Transformers: The Secret of Eunho’s House
In Mungyeong, Gyeongsangbuk-do, there is a house that gradually changes over 10 years? It’s a house hidden away in the village, but it’s completely different from when it was first built 10 years ago. What secrets are hidden in Transformers Eunho’s house?
This house was built by a couple with unique ideas who graduated from art school and decided to leave the city and live in the country. As both husband and wife are artists who work as illustrators, they also decorated the interior of the house sensuously… By combining the structure of a hanok with a porch deck and a main floor, the client’s childhood memories were vividly recreated. In addition, each space was connected by steps, creating an integrated house where almost everything can be done in one space without walls. However, as time goes by, houses also age. In addition, Eun-ho, the child he desperately wanted, miraculously came to visit, and this house became a Transformer house.
The porch space under the eaves was walled off to create a dining room for a family of three, and the living room, which was used as a workroom, was remodeled into a pyeongsang, Eunho’s playground. In particular, the highlight is the main floor with openings in the front and back, which was the pride of Eun-ho’s father, Mr. Lee Jo. It was transformed into a true transformer-type duplex space and reborn as a couple’s studio space.
As a house built by two artists, you can clearly see their personalities. My wife wanted only rafters without beams, so she chose an externally sloping roof and completed the unique interior with wood and red bricks. Let’s explore a house that was transformed over 10 years.
Wise ways to use an old house
Mungyeong, Gyeongsangbuk-do, followed a friend to Mungyeong instead of Gangnam? The main characters of the second house are the neighbors of Eunho’s house in the first Transformer. I fell in love with my college junior when I saw him living in the countryside, so I bought his land and built a house next to it. The owner and his wife are active as designers. For those for whom it was important to receive inspiration, there was no need for Seoul to be their place of residence. What will the house built by the designer couple look like?
The owner couple set the construction cost within the budget of 100 million won. A couple who majored in art designed the house and left the construction to a carpenter they met through their parents. But from then on, the difficult task of building a house began… For a carpenter who specialized only in building houses for the elderly, design was just a luxury. However, for a couple who graduated from art school and did not deal with anything unless it was pretty, the problem was that that was all they had.
The owner couple wanted to realize moldless, thresholdless technology, which is a hot trend these days, 10 years ago. However, the carpenter’s 2% lack of molding without molding becomes a door for insects through the cracks in the wall, and the kitchen sink that my husband built instead of the carpenter, who eventually ran away, cannot be put down with the planer because of the twisted wooden top.
It doesn’t end here! The couple went on a trip to Chiang Mai, Thailand, fell in love with the scenery, and decided to live there for a while. They stayed away for two and a half years. But in the meantime, a problem arose. The bathroom wall, which was not properly waterproofed, is collapsing. In addition, the Douglas fir window, which had been fitted all the way to Euljiro, had started to rot black, and the foot bath in the garden, which was the husband’s only dream, had become a den of frogs and snakes.
The owner and his wife shed a lot of tears during the construction process, but are now living a wonderful life with an attitude of embracing even the flaws. I am spending my daily life leisurely, reminiscing about the funny episodes that happened throughout the house. Let’s explore the wise use of an old house, where even flaws can be designed thanks to the designer’s sense.
