Deriving from the elements on site: the proximity to the river, the surrounding greens and it’s highly residential environs, the residence intended to open out to these individual elements. The plot being a small one that could accommodate only a 1,200sqft ground floor area, demanded optimized spaces articulated by large openings that would pave way for an extended visual boundary. This was done with the addition of a treated courtyard space between the dining room and the compound wall, skylights and full size openings to view the river. Mezzanine level reading space and an outdoor work area were added to maximize the space within the house without compromising the spaciousness of elemental rooms.
