THE BRIEF
TO DESIGN A HOME THAT WOULD AGE GRACEFULLY, A PRIVATE YET OPEN HOUSE WITH MULTIPLE LIVING AREAS TO ALLOW THE FAMILY TO GROW AND HAVE THEIR CHANGING NEEDS ACCOMMODATED OVER TIME
FROM THE DIRECTOR OF EDITION OFFICE, AARON ROBERT S:
“Our primary design response for this project was to first recalibrate the entire project site into a large and singular terrace — one grand outdoor theatre for living which peels upwards at each title boundary to form a lush garden backdrop that would appear at every viewpoint from the living areas of the home. Within this garden platform, the house is defined by a pair of heavily textured concrete shrouds, each with its own proportion and personality, linked together by a walkway and courtyard garden. The ground-floor living and lounge spaces in each pavilion are distinct from one another, yet they connect across the central north-facing garden and courtyard.
