随着现代社会中男女之间的传统角色变得模糊不清，家中的隐私和家中空间的基本性质正在发生变化。即使是在过去父权制时代的大家庭中被忽视的家庭成员之间的隐私，现在也是最基本的保障，特别是在已婚夫妇中。妇女通过增加对社会的参与而实现的经济独立在其中发挥了作用。因此，厨房已经脱离了生产食物的传统功能，变成了一个类似咖啡馆的空间，有一张大桌子。它也是一个酒巴，供即将结婚的夫妇在工作之余驻足。
As the traditional role between men and women become blurred in modern society, the privacy at home and the basic nature of spaces in the house is being changed. Even the privacy among family members that had been overlooked in the past patriarchal era with a large family is now the most basic thing to insure, especially among married couples. The economic independence of women through increased participation in society plays a role in this. As a result, the kitchen has turned into a café-like space with a large table out of its traditional function of producing the food. It is also a wine bar for the soon-to-be married couple to stop by after work.
韩国的大多数小房子通常内部非常复杂，没有开放感，因为他们试图容纳许多东西，但Malefemale房子试图同时满足功能和结构、实用性和开放性、简单性和新颖性，只有通过楼梯这个不可缺少的建筑元素。楼梯穿透房子的中心，将每层楼分隔成南面的生活区和北面的浴室和衣柜等服务区，通过将浴室作为走廊，在每层楼形成一个8字形的圆形运动。这些简单而实用的运动使空间的体验更加丰富。
Most tiny houses in Korea are normally very complicated inside without a sense of openness as they try to accommodate many things, but Malefemale house tries to satisfy the function and structure, practicality and openness, simplicity and novelty at the same time only through the staircase, the indispensable architectural element. The stair penetrates the house in the center, separating each floor into the living area to the south and into service areas of bathrooms and closets to the north, and by using the bathroom as corridor it forms an 8-character circular movement on each floor. These simple yet functional movements make the experience of space even richer.
2楼的客厅和3楼的卧室因为面积和户型相同而放松了它们之间的私密性，然而，由于各自有独立的卫生间，客厅又隐约被男性占据，卧室则被女性占据。客厅的蓝绿色大理石墙和卧室的红色木墙是代表这种属性的典型和象征的材料。室内空间的对称性揭示了南北不同性别的面孔，而这个数字，就像纪念品商店里的巴洛克大教堂的缩影，由于其风格和建筑规模的不匹配，创造了相当可爱的感觉。
Living room on the 2nd floor and bedroom on the 3rd loosen the privacy between them because they have the same area and type, however, with independent toilet on each, the living room is again implicitly occupied by men and the bedroom by women. Blue-green marble wall in the living room and red wooden wall in the bedroom are materials that represent such properties both typically and symbolically. The symmetry of interior space reveals the faces of different genders to the north and the south and the figure, as if it were a miniature of a Baroque Cathedral in a souvenir shop, creates quite a cute feeling due to its mismatch of style and building scale.
