House of Cross Recasts Multi-Generational Living Around a Central Yard
House of Cross stands in Beijing, China, as a new kind of rural house designed by chaoffice for three generations under one broad courtyard sky. The project rebuilds a family home and home office on a village plot, working within strict single-story regulations while rethinking how courtyards, roofs, and rooms connect daily life. Its cross-shaped plan sets up a quiet but precise geometry for shared routines and private retreats.
