Home to a family of seven, this landed house features bright open spaces with full visual connectivity.

by Asih Jenie  /   January 9, 2021

This project garnered the Bronze award for Best Residential Design (Private House), at the IDCS 2020 Design Excellence Awards.

Uniting three generations under one roof has its unique joys and sorrows. The design of such house must take into consideration the needs of the individual family members, so each can have a space for privacy and retreat to keep the peace. Such house must also have great communal spaces and visual connectivity. This 427sqm landed home designed by D’Marvel Scale ticks all the boxes.

The concept of the interior highlights lines as its main design element, resulting in a bright, airy and sleek spaces that makes the most of its multi-level volume while providing ample storage.

The counter and glass walls separate the kitchen from the dining area. The two areas can be merged by folding the glass doors aside.

One of the family’s communal area is the common study, which features floor to ceiling bookcase and overhead storage that are accessible via a sliding staircase. This communal study has visual access to both the living-dining area and the bedrooms.
