Residential design at this point, many have unique characteristics that made the exploration memaximalkan design. The idea of design of a dwelling house in the end have the same goal, namely how homes are designed with both comfort (comfort), safety (security), and of course in terms of the processing of the design itself (aesthetic). Long before these parameters, comfort or comfortability factor refers to penghawaan and daylighting systems that have the largest portion of the above exploration of design aesthetics. But overall all these parameters, in the end the best answer is how architects can bridge the idea the idea of the owner (occupants) to realize the wishes and needs. Environment around the building footprint is the area of the beach, so the tropical house design model should be one of the handles (guideline) in explorasinya design. Tread located on the corner (hoek), make it easier for architects to be able to maximize the building façade game later. Tread measuring 20x30 square meters, has KDB 40%, must be managed carefully and the corresponding optimal grouping of space systems, functions, and the needs of the owner, because the house corner (hoek) will reduce the percentage of land area due to the building demarcation line (GSB) which surrounds the whole both sides. Three and a half storey building has an area of approximately 900 m2 are allocated to functions, among others; Semi-basement floor to the garage, the kitchen was dirty, and a ballroom; The ground floor is used living room, guest bedroom.

Footprint in the area of tropical beach despite having good environmental greening, but the air temperature is much hotter, so the models coutyard made a large aperture as core-light (light aperture) and access to natural penghawaan creating openings. Surrounding spaces created by the width is not large and has a lot more transparent wall, so the optimization of these parameters more easily achieved. Courtyard made with reflecting pool (ordinary fish pond with a depth of 40cm), so as to provide coolness and raise the humidity factor (dehumidity factor), water ripple bias will give a touch of aesthetics and uniqueness.
Tropical house typology is commonly used in residential architecture in Jakarta, but the strategy of the tropical house model is a challenge to make it happen properly and how to adjust the details and wishes of the owner as well as optimizing light and ventilation in all rooms around the courtyard. Progress design ideas will always appear in line with its development, therefore the application of the design is done with careful attention to the orientation of the tropical air climate is very influential on the use of materials for finishing the building and the application of modern details such as what can be integrated in tropical buildings, such as natural stone , wood, and so on.

In the house there are specially made attractive for residents, ie game attractive fields such as the ladder sections exposed by the architect and made into a higher mass than the other and wrapped by a full glass, so that it becomes part of the house that is very eye cathing on side facade with a North-South orientation, while the facade that deal directly with the East-West orientation used eaves and skylights. Innercourt the form reflecting pool area as well as the use of wood decks became the object of interest in this dwelling, as can be seen from all corners of the room. On the top floor, Pavilion Top is an attractive area for residents. Because of this room can enjoy the best view (best view) to the sea.
