Minus K House by Kuu Architecture - 1

View in gallery

The Minus K House is built around a series of 9-foot cubes. On the outside, this Nanhui, China home looks boxy and fragmented. Inside, however, staggered walls cascade and open upon each other, spiraling outward from a central dining table pivot point. The home, designed by Shanghai architectural firm Kuu , was built around two living spaces: a residence during the work week and a weekend retreat. The four corners of the central table are divided by two kitchens and a pair of courtyards. The home’s two living spaces are interconnected architecturally, but are designed to give privacy to two families simultaneously. [via designboom , photography by jeremy san ]
