The narrow land if designed properly can present roomy and comfortable for the resident. Building facade design
is not the end goal, only 4-sided geometry. “All people who passing
must have different perceptions when looking at this house, unique,
strange, funny, but the owner is comfortable”. The important thing is
the building should be kept to maximize natural lighting and aeration.
So, the layout should pay attention to the openings. Openings can be
created on the sides and rear of the building. The building side is torn
about 1m to maximize light and air, while behind is still made tiny
balcony.
As
the result, layout in this land is made open plan. Culture and daily
habits become initial analysis in designing this house. The owner is
pleased with the characteristic of Japanese culture. He also likes home
design with Japanese style. Well, this house is a combination of
Japanese design with local culture. “The Japanese always think
practically, the space is divided by time”. So, the room is open, one
room for all. All furniture is made ‘mobile’, so easily moved and
folded.
The
entire building color is neutral color, white, and gray, so that the
building becomes canvas for furniture and accessory element in it. Home
without terrace, from carport, main entrance open to the pantry. Pantry
regarded as the center of the most frequently used. So, deliberately
placed in front. Behind there is bar table with wheel-legged. If there
is a big event, this table can be shifted. Without bulkhead, behind the
bar immediately ordered a sofa set with a wooden table without finishing
as the family room. “Table is also set the wheel. Anyway, all that can
be given away, there must be the wheel.
Specifically analyzed is the master bedroom.
The bedroom, work room, and bathroom are combined open plan. At the
rear, there is a balcony as a relaxation area. Bathroom area is only
separated by an imaginary boundary flooring material. Two sides of the
bedroom is made of glass. So, the view outside is maximum.
Behind the family room,
there is a service area that partitioned with bookshelves. The family
room side, there is staircase as line leading to a private area. This
stair is made dramatic. If the evening, which seemed only a dim light
that flanked rustic board and fusia colored wall. On the top floor,
there is two bedrooms with two bathrooms. This floor is closed with
timber in order to seemed relaxed. All spaces are only sealed gypsum.
Child room is very small in the front area. While behind child room,
there is wardrobe area.
