Song-Zhang-Kou Rural Housing

Construction and Real Estate Projects Design Song-Zhang-Kou Rural Housing by Bluetown Architects Co., Ltd. Song-Zhang-Kou is a rural housing community in Siyang, Jiangsu, China. The design serves a mainly elderly population and keeps construction costs low. The houses are grouped in clusters that form sixteen village cores, which act as shared spaces for neighbors. Each home has a private courtyard used for a vegetable garden, storage and sun drying. The style is refined from traditional Northern Jiangsu architecture, with layered white gable walls and dark roof tiles, simplified to suit the budget. Solar panels are fitted to every unit.
