The Wandering Walls 灣臥 by XRANGE

The Wandering Walls is a 7 room retreat where rugged, curvaceous concrete walls define the boundaries between architecture and landscape. The architecture is made up of 11 segments of load bearing curve walls that are misaligned vertically, their layouts dictated by views, the arrangement of public and private spaces and the need for wind barriers. The concrete walls thus “wander” in and out of the floor slabs to create flowing movements in and out of the wild landscapes.

在墾丁面海的山上，茂盛的相思樹林旁，弧線牆自由穿梭在有機形狀的樓地板上，形成了八個房間的灣臥民宿。11段自由彎曲、且垂直平面錯開的清水模混凝土承重牆定義了建築與景觀、室內與戶外之間的介面，並是建築扺擋強勁落山風的版牆結構系統。因此，清水模承重牆在樓地板平面上自由遊走與“進出”，在無限海景、海風及樹林搖曳的聲音感官體驗中，讓旅人沿著流線弧牆的曲線在光影婆娑間，回到對自然與土地共生的永恆之念。

The Wandering Walls 灣臥 by XRANGE

The Wandering Walls is entirely cast using flat wooden formwork panels of 4, 20 and 30cm widths. Along the walls, materials transitions from rough concrete to wood, metal and tiles. The rough concrete walls on the windward side has gradually smoothed out by strong seasonal winds.

At the stairs, curve walls “fly” or cantilever 4.5m off the 2F and 3F floor plates to form a 3-stories suspended concrete enclosure where the walls hover above each other but do not touch, creating gaps that reveal the horizon where sky, forest and ocean merge.

灣臥建築的曲面是以 4、20、30公分寛的雜木平板模形成。順著承重牆的流線弧形，材料觸感從粗獷水泥混凝土轉換為木材、金屬或磁磚。向風面的粗獷水泥混凝土也因長期受落山風的吹襲而漸漸變得光滑細緻。漫遊到梯間之際，弧牆大膽飛越出挑成為樓梯間捕捉相思樹林隨風搖曳聲音的迴聲牆。當客人經過樓梯之時，猶如巧遇般體驗到令人難忘的相思樹葉沙沙作響的旋律。在樓層之間，飛牆相互交錯，形成了無邊際的開囗，映入天、林、海之際的地平線框景。

The “Stone Cloud” pavilion (雲石之間）we completed a few weeks ago is an experiment on the seemingly incompatible materiality of 2 elements: the weight/ permanence of stone and the lightness/ ephemeral clouds above.

Bright blue marble, matt and and reflective black granite panels are expressed as a shroud of light and shadow, acting as sun shading while reflecting the changing sky conditions throughout the day.
