Text description provided by the architects. Situated as its next-door neighbor of the old house, this project started out as a landscape project as an extension of the old one and continued into building an entirely new house next door to elevate its old one. The old house has a classic style of architecture, that was crowded with masses and lack of greeneries. Instead of making duplication of the old house design, we explore the ideas of contrast to give the new house and its users a complete change of experience. The challenge that arises was to combine two houses in one lot into one harmonious unity. Ideas of fusing wood materials and the color white to be incorporated in the design were what became the main concept of the house. The newly built garden between the two houses added a facade area and new openings to the old house to improve air circulation and invites natural light. Some water features, such as a swimming pool and koi pond were added to create a tropics ambiance on top of the serene shading by the Brazilian fire tree.
