the Reality
Every project has constraints; may that be context, social, or even financial. Here at augmented reality architects, we use those constraints to enrich the final outcome by “augmenting” our solution to the problem.
W House
Located on a north-west corner plot in a dense residential area near Seoul, W House is for a couple and two teen sons.

The request went as far as to sacrifice basic requirements for a house, such as ventilation and ample sunlight.
