Residence @ Ratmalana 3

It is a three story house located in Ratmalana. The project was inspired by the idea of contemporary designs. The land and its environment together with the topography of the site are taken as the structural principals in developing the concept of the house. The planning of the house is structured along a longitudinal axis while also coinciding with the best sun orientation, winds and views.

All spaces have a specific relationship with the outside through big openings that highlight the connection that the house establishes with nature. The concept develops in three levels. House and individual rooms act as in-between places and work as transitional spaces between inside and outside. Openly connected spaces, a double-height living room, rooms that flow to each other, glazed floors and bridges all maximize interior space and offering unobstructed views to the garden and the pool. Furthermore, the pool-water as evaporates provides natural cooling effect throughout the living space.
