PH๏τography: Captured by Masaki HarimotoThis is a terrace house for a 3 generation family located in the east coast area of Singapore. Situated at the top of a hilly neighborhood, the sloping terrain allows for a unique basement that enjoys an open rear garden with views.
This is where the dining room and kitchen are located to enjoy the dining experience both indoors and outdoors. A double-height void above the dining room brings light and air and promotes cross-interaction with the living room on the first floor.
An internal light well induces cross ventilation throughout the house. A skylight above brings light into the terraced house.
All façade openings and the outdoor community space are sheltered with awnings and fins to protect from the weather, while the rooms are set back with balconies and sliding doors with wooden shutters for added privacy.
