Understanding the universe, the nature and the constancy of its cycles is the purpose of this 60 m² house, guided by a term from Chinese philosophy: tao, which in Mandarin can mean path or method. The concept encompasses the journey that makes each thing what it is – including the history of its raw materials and the labor used in its construction. “The breathing of each person involved in these processes also contributes to the uniqueness of an environment”, explains the architect. A tree brings a feeling of freshness and relief. The stainless steel walls draw sober reflections and highlight the colors of the surroundings.
