This three-storey bungalow centers on a contemporary interpretation of the gable archetype to create a sustainable, family-centric home. The gable roof, a staple of tropical vernacular architecture, efficiently channels rainwater and enhances natural ventilation through the stack effect, reducing reliance on mechanical cooling. As the building ascends, stepped-back terraces beneath the gable provide shaded outdoor spaces, reducing heat gain to the interiors.

The house is primarily oriented forward to capture views of the Singapore Botanic Gardens just beyond the apartments at its front, while a private rear courtyard creates privacy and a green outlook to the back rooms. Family life unfolds on these verdant terraces, fostering connection across levels.
