Hello Embryo
Text description provided by architect.
The project is designed for a young couple with creative taste in visual culture; a toy collector and avid traveler who loves the outdoor.
They have asked to design a house with lots of open space, plenty of fresh air and playfulness.
The site is located in center of Jakarta with a unique dimension of 7.5 meters narrow street-front and 30 meters length.
These existing conditions gave the design approach of dividing the site into two buildings of three-story and two-story with a front yard, a middle courtyard and a backyard to allow cross ventilation and maximal views to the gardens.
The two massing are designed to maximize natural lighting and positioned as split-level connected by a semi-outdoor stairs for dynamic circulation.
The house has a very distinct, subtle and graphic form surrounded by landscape as a sanctuary from the busy city life.
