Openings in Wooden Walls: Holes Dug Out

An opening in a wooden wall: a hole carved out. Openings for doors, niches, and passages are rectangular shapes directly carved out of the entire wooden surface. The sides of the opening are also clad with the same wood, with no visible door frames or moldings. The depth of the opening is visible, more than twenty centimeters, creating a shadow on the inner side of the opening. The door leaf is flush with the wall, with only a door gap visible when closed. Avoid: adding door frames and veneers around the opening, making the opening appear shallow as if pasted on, using different materials than the wall to clad the sides of the opening, making the door leaf protrude from or recede into the wall.

一個開在木牆上的洞。門、壁龕與通道的開口是直接從整面木作上挖出來的矩形,四周的側邊也包著同一種木,看不到任何門框與線腳;開口的深度看得出來,有二十公分以上,因此洞口內側有一段陰影。門扇與牆面齊平,關起來時只有門縫。避免:在開口周圍加門框與貼皮、讓洞口沒有深度像貼上去的、使用與牆不同的材料包覆洞口側邊、讓門扇凸出或凹進牆面。
