“Design a house which my 3 daughters would want to live with us for as long as possible”
We interpreted the client’s love for their daughters through a various mix of circular spatial planning, symbolic representation and a youthful colour palette.
Spatial Loop - The kid’s room is located directly in the center of the house. The kids sleeping room designed to be on an elevated platform and directly connected to the master bedroom and study room, forming a circulation loop. The access to the kid’s room is through either of the both rooms. This visual and spatial connectivity promotes greater interaction between the family members, and still allow for a level of privacy.
This circular spatial planning is symbolically represented with 2 Arcs on the shelf and sliding door. When the sliding door is opened, the Loop is completed spatially and visually.
The design of the book shelf in the study room is translated from the names of the children in a non-linear manner.
The colour palette adopted was aimed to be complex and colourful while still adhering to a level of sophistication and balance.
A vibrant mix of yellows and russet hues, together with mint greens were applied to the kids room and toilet while earthy wood tones together with granite covers the rest of the space.
