Minimalist Organic House

Just finish building this one..
This house is a minimalist in terms of shapes, elements, and also organic in terms of its unity with the surrounding.

This house is located in Bambu Apus, Cilangkap area.

A unique L-shaped of the land, and a nice pond view next to the land, brings a nice configuration to the house layout.



Stole the view :)

The first idea that comes into my mind when i visit the site was "Stole the View". The view from the empty land with a pond, next to the house site is great. The intention is to have the view and feel like it's your own land. The use of glass doors and corner windows are to enable the user to enjoy the view.

Dining area is also an open-air dining area, located at the back at the house.

Another Modern-Traditional House at Cileungsi

Just found these in my archives. :)
Way back in 2002, i had this house design project. The house is located at Cileungsi.

The owner specifically want the house to be has some balinese aspects, but don't want it to look too traditional.

Collaborating with my dear friend Rully Gumilar, we designed a house that has a little bit of balinese space planning, textures (stones, bricks, wood), and also some roof accessories. But overall the house still look modern.

Lucky enough that the land that this house is situated is quite big (about 700m2), which enables us to divide building mass into 3 groups: the foyer & guest area, the living area and garage.
All these 3 masses is then connected by corridor.


















One of the coolest thing is to play with the wood pillar structure. We put the wood pillar on top of a 'one piece' 16cm steel bar, welded on a steel plate. Check out below:
