Project Description
This housing development is the first phase of a larger masterplan. It has the ambition to be an anchor for future surrounding developments. With a vision to capture the interest of younger communities, the design encapsulates several trendy features centred around family building.
The idea of ‘lantern’ was continually applied throughout the building façade. Besides functioning as a shading device, it also creates luminous effect along the road.
The selection of vibrant colours also added to the overall composition, thereby complementing the bold and strong horizontal elements.
With the front and rear façade facing North and South, the design further emphasized on climatic response by providing sufficient and appropriate amount of windows at strategic positions, thereby promoting natural ventilation and natural day light penetration. Screenings were designed on the East and West facing elevations.
