HOUSE #3

The project brief called for a house which had a strong connection with the landscape, a carefully designed japanese inspired garden, and passive climate control to manage the warm climate, high humidity and torrential rainfall during the wet season.

The design response was for a collection of spaces connected with covered walkways. Each room is separated entirely so the occupants must walk outside, into the landscaped spaces, to enter in to another room.

All rooms have operable windows for natural ventilation and shade screens to limit direct sunlight and provide for additional privacy.
