“Envisioning their ideal home, our client sought a studio house design, which minimizes internal walls to maximise space and flow. Inspired by Western architectural beauty, they desired a compact yet functional space for their small family. Additionally, they aimed for a lush, green environment, which reflected their desire to seamlessly blend modern living with natural serenity. These were the key motivations that guided the start of their housing project.”
A Studio House Design Which Minimizes Internal Walls To Maximise Spatial Flow | OFF THE GRID
Inspired by our client’s vision for a smooth blend of modernity and nature, our architectural journey led us to craft a residence that exceeds expectations.
Centered around a serene courtyard, the house unfolds along a carefully orchestrated axis. Thus dividing the public and private realms seamlessly. Every space offers a serene view of the verdant courtyard, also bringing nature closer to home.
The staircase, which is inspired by birds’ wings, emerges as a major focal point, symbolising both style and complexity.
Within, minimalist yet modern interiors grace expansive double-height volumes, infusing the home with an air of sophistication.
Furthermore, from the moment one steps through the entrance, a clear, uninterrupted vista extends through the entirety of the house, a testament to our unwavering dedication to fulfilling our client’s aspirations.
Through our innovative architectural vision, we’ve transformed their dreams into a residence that exceeds all expectations, embodying the essence of beauty and functionality.”
Bird-Inspired Staircase Design: A Standout Architectural Feature, the staircase, inspired by the graceful curves of a bird’s wing, takes centre stage as a sculptural element. Its intricate design not only serves as a functional link but also adds a touch of artistic flair to the entire space.
