PRIVATE RESIDENCE
DOORS AND WALL CLADDING IN BLACK STEEL
ARCHITECTURE: ARIELLA SHINIOR
SUPERVISION: YEHUDA SHMAI

IN A NOT-SO-LARGE HOUSE, WE WERE TASKED BY THE ARCHITECT TO FIND A DESIGN SOLUTION TO "BRING ORDER TO THE CHAOS" IN THE ENTRY SPACE.
TRANSITIONS, THE ENTRANCE TO THE HOUSE, DIFFERENT KEYS, AND THE STAIRS CREATED VISUAL CLUTTER, AND TO CREATE AESTHETIC TRANQUILITY, IN COLLABORATION WITH THE ARCHITECT, IT WAS DECIDED TO DESIGN THE SPACE IN WEATHERED STEEL WITH A SMOOTH APPEARANCE AS POSSIBLE WITHOUT DIVISIONS.
WE USED HOMOGENEOUS AND SMOOTH MATERIAL AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE, WITH WHICH WE COVERED THE WALLS, DESIGNED DOORS, AND INCLUDED A UNIQUE PIVOT DOOR FOR THE STAIRCASE, WHOSE OPENING MECHANISM DID NOT COMPROMISE THE DOOR'S WIDTH.
WHEN ALL THE DOORS ARE CLOSED, THE ENTRYWAY IS ENVELOPED IN BLACK STEEL WITH A FLOATING APPEARANCE (THANKS TO THE GAP WE LEFT BETWEEN THE STEEL AND THE FLOOR), CREATING ORDER AND CALMNESS FOR THOSE PRESENT IN IT.
