This project involves the development  of seven units on a narrow, sloping 1-acre site, featuring four typologies designed to cater to the diverse needs of its users. At the heart of the development lies a centralized pool area with an outdoor bar, serving as the focal point and social hub of the design.

​

The planning and façade design draw inspiration from the surrounding landscape, adopting a rustic aesthetic through the use of a hybrid wood-and-steel structure, natural stone cladding, and neutral rendered walls.

 

Butterfly roofs are a prominent feature, facilitating clerestory lighting to enhance natural light within the interiors.

​

The site's sloping terrain has been thoughtfully addressed by positioning the typologies on different levels. Interconnected by ramps, the design ensures universal accessibility while maintaining seamless transitions across the space
