Residential Architecture refers to the design and construction of buildings that are used primarily for residential purposes, such as houses, apartments, and condominiums. This type of architecture includes a wide range of styles and designs, from traditional to modern and everything in between. Residential architects work closely with clients to understand their needs and preferences, and then create custom designs that are both functional and aesthetically pleasing. They consider factors such as site location, building materials, energy efficiency, and sustainability to create homes that meet the needs of their clients and are in harmony with the surrounding environment.
Designed by ZAO/standardarchitecture in 2014, this small-scale Beijing project enriches bonds amongst communities and revives Hutong life.
