Text description provided by the architects. The most common type of residential land in the city is a plot of 200 sq.m and mostly surrounded from the sides by other 200 sq.m plots, consequently there is only one open side to face which is the shorter side. This typicality of land division has reflected negatively on the way people think about the design of their houses and it has created sameness throughout residential areas. The real challenge for us was changing the client’s mindset and persuading them about designing a bespoke house for them and not a copy of what is already being built thousands of times in the city.
