Could you describe the uniqueness of your architectural style for residential projects and how has it evolved over the years?
I have been quite experimental in using ready materials to create interesting facades and screens. It’s such a unique process to match material to concepts. Sometimes, catering to smaller budget projects allow me to explore these common materials for my designs. Creating well-lit, naturally ventilated spaces is a passion of mine and I describe this as an open architecture concept, where we always try to blur the boundary between inside and outside through setting up of various buffer threshold spaces. Much like chapters in a book, the narrator controls the pace of the storytelling, so I often see myself spending more time designing the buffer spaces to encourage the visitor to pause and reflect on the plot development.
