Project Scope: New
Completion: 2023
A three-storey semi-detached house with a basement is designed for a senior couple with an extended family who visits occasionally. Sited on a truncated land, the house is designed to be a welcoming family home with space for everyone.
Large and shaded openings are strategically positioned to allow ample natural light and ventilation into and through the house. These openings also seamlessly connect the indoor and outdoor areas in common spaces, while private spaces are provided with moderated openings for privacy. The basement is never far from natural light and ventilation through an air well that is designed with a water cascade to cool the space and send a gentle echo of water throughout the house. The attic opens out to a large roof terrace to house the owners’ extensive plant collection.
