Residential
Cantilever House
The brief demanded a programme of spaces on a compact semi-urban site and a necessity to abundance of natural light and privacy. This is accomplished by introduction of a central skylight encapsulating the entire living area, as well as having floor to ceiling windows. By use of orientation and perforated brick work on balconies, privacy is guaranteed to the inhabitants without compromising on the lighting as well as air quality. To compensate for minimal ground green areas, green pockets were created on the back end as well as on the terrace rooftop, which is gardened.
