Drawing inspiration from the site's distinctive character, our vision was ignited by the lush expanse in front of the property, becoming the driving force behind this project. Our ultimate aspiration was to dissolve the boundaries between the natural and the artificial, resulting in a design that melds the residence with its natural surroundings.

The narrative of our design unfolds on the ground floor, where two intersecting prisms give birth to a captivating void. The first prism, aligned with the street, houses the public spaces, offering an open and versatile environment defined by inverted beams and expansive floor-to-ceiling windows, forming a visual connection to the surrounding green landscape. On either side, we've carefully crafted semi-covered spaces to manage the play of natural light, enhancing the ethereal quality of the complex. In contrast, the second prism, set perpendicular to the street, is home to the private areas, safeguarding residents' privacy and comfort. Here, the kitchen and laundry areas are separated from the outside by an opaque wall, while the inner walls are transparent, allowing visuals to the central void that become a serene sanctuary for a Japanese tree. Strategically positioned bedrooms and bathrooms facing North offer captivating vistas of the adjacent park, and the access to the bathrooms via the bedrooms enhances privacy while welcoming ample natural light into the connecting corridor. Lastly, the main bedroom, tucked away for intimacy, creates a personal link to the backyard.

This architectural piece stands as a testament to my commitment to erasing the boundaries between the built environment and the natural world, forging a seamless, sensory connection that enriches the lives of its residents. Welcome to a realm where architecture and nature coexist in perfect harmony.
