Concrete Garden

Completed

The house is an open plan single-storey residence surrounded by tropical landscaping. The concrete garden house is both a complement and a contrast to the context of the neighborhood.

Concrete, like stone, ages well and is capable of taking life’s blows and accept traces of use. The facade acts as a soft screen that allows sun and breeze through the house. Behind the facade is a planting strip with bamboos that grow thru the roof. Here, the landscape and structure are knitted together.
