The House of Three Trees, Contemporary architectural structure in Sangju, South Korea.

The House of Three Trees spans 60 square meters with three wooden columns forming tree-shaped supports that extend throughout the interior ceiling space.

The building design references timber resources from the late Joseon Dynasty period, reflecting on architectural practices between the 17th and 19th centuries.

The structure incorporates the traditional East Asian wooden bracket system known as Gong-po, merging it with modern digital fabrication techniques.

The hexagonal building features a kitchenette, bathroom, and storage areas along one wall, while clerestory windows allow natural light to filter through.

The construction consists of 4,006 individual wooden pieces joined without nails or adhesives, creating a self-supporting canopy beneath the angular roof.
