Design narrative
A contemporary tropical residence designed around natural ventilation, daylight, and indoor–outdoor living.
The design is organized as a sequence of compression and release. Solid planes create privacy toward the street, while rooms open inward to planted courts, filtered light, and moving air. The result is calm without feeling sealed, and precise without becoming precious.

Three design decisions
Less gesture. More effect.
Filtered boundaries
Screens and deep reveals protect privacy while keeping light and air in motion.
A restrained palette
A compact set of tactile materials gives the architecture continuity and calm.
