In the southwest direction, one can see the elevated rail transit in the distance. To the east is a neighboring property, and to the west is a river. Opposite the riverbank lies a dense forest, with a peninsula site being its characteristic feature. What was shocking during the first visit to the site was not the pastoral scenery, but how the rail transit so dreamily switched between urban and rural areas, as if traveling through time. The original house, built in the 1980s, was in a dilapidated state, prompting the owner to apply for a reconstruction to provide a more comfortable and peaceful living space for their parents.

The first floor should be controlled at 98 square meters, and the auxiliary building is a flat-roofed structure with one floor, 40 square meters.
