The “Cracked” Family House

The so-called “cracked” house is a house with the location in Heyri Art Valley, somewhere in Paju, South Korea. It is an impressive building which has many modern designed rooms under the same roof; the idea of “cracked” stands for the shared space situated in the center. The house can be used both as two independent houses, if the members of the family feel the need to have some privacy, their own space in which nobody interferes, or as two parts in one house.
