Annotations + Statement:

This share house is designed for 3 specific university students living in the urbanised city. 

theme: natural light and connectivity

the aim of this project was to convey a sense of organisation and privacy through a medium of natural light.

stairs connect like a web

Diagonal staircases provide a clean flow and circulation.

the void rooms are used as the main staircase access - to our advantage to provide a central flow to the main house.

This achieved a balance between privacy and oppenness - thats why all of our private rooms are on the sides. (as well as the bathroom being on the side). This allows us to walk through each room without disturbing the natural flow of interrupting private rooms.

offset + sloped irregular combination influenced this web-like maze.

circulation is the main focus - it is very fluent

this fluency of circulation is conveyed through the emptiness of most rooms, allowing

for a more comfortable space movement.

travelling throughout the house in a more direct and restricted manner, allowing the share space to be more organised and user-friendly, rather than confusing and scattered.

holes and disparity in the roof allow for free-flowing natural light, which furthers this sense of organisation and comfort (metahporically!)

the pond on the first floor reiterates this sense of nature (also the poster on the first floor).

welcome garden is very open and inviting.

we let this greenery be the source of welcoming - hence it is only present OUTSIDE of the share house, the rest of the nature INSIDE the house is based on the natural light. this creates a sense of contrast between nature and urbanisation - creating a sense of organisation and circulation flow.
