白色纤维水泥覆盖的表面,就像是一个观察的景框。室内设计采取了更具表达性的方式。
The compact first floor includes kitchen and living spaces, and continues seamlessly to the courtyard, feeling open and spacious. The staircases and rooms in the upper floors have great views of the courtyard, the sky and the urban fabric. Each residence has triple exposure with access to light, air, and multiple views.
The unique configuration and usage of materials offers features extremely rare to urban dwellings. In the city where nature and sky are scarce, a central paved courtyard planted with a crape myrtle tree provides a welcoming entrance and comfortable outdoor living space.
Type of Construction
As affordability was of central concern to the client, we kept building and construction costs low by using standard, off-shelf-shelf items. The structure is a wood frame with a masonry façade made of trendstone ground faced veneer and curtain walls of aluminum and glass. The windows are Kawneer aluminum storefront. The lighting consists of Bega light fixtures.
