The brief for this project was notable for its dualities. Our clients sought a meticulously crafted residence—luxurious yet understated, secluded yet with striking street presence. This directive gave us freedom to explore and experiment with materials, form and proportions.
We employed a blend of concrete, stone, wood, terrazzo, and linen to introduce warmth and colour. Together, these elements interact with light, producing reflections, depth, and enriching the spatial experience with layers of texture.
We aimed for the materials to evoke a feeling of consistency, ensuring the home embodies a seamless unity from its exterior to its interior. The contemplative essence of the entryway's structure resonates throughout the living and dining spaces. Here, gentle tones and minimalist elements converge to cultivate a serene and reflective atmosphere.
Flourishing gardens border the living room, promoting visual continuity that extends seamlessly indoors. This design approach aims to uphold a sense of uninterrupted flow throughout the spaces of the residence.
In addressing natural light, a thoughtful strategy was paramount. We crafted solutions to strategically invite light into specific areas at optimal moments. Through a blend of strategic orientations, angled apertures, and innovative screening techniques, we aimed to welcome light from various directions, enriching the interior spaces with brightness.
