A Wonderland with Attics

With the transformation of China’s policy on childbirth, families with two children have become more and more popular; as a result, more living space is demanded for the convenience of children’s playing and learning at home. 

To meet this need, this project makes full use of the existing sloping roof structure and transforms the roof into a space composed of three attics.

The design retains the central and northern areas of the original attic to form an independent top-level attic, suitable for sleeping, gaming, and reading according to different heights. On the whole, the circular entrance inlays this mysterious space into the frame, and the roof skylight reflects the blue sky into the attic.

Meanwhile, the lower part on the south side of the original attic is segmented into two parts respectively for the children’s room and the master bedroom on the lower floor.
