THE FLOATING HOUSE

Wellness is The New Luxury


THE TROPICAL VILLA / BALI

The Tropical Villa design combines innovative construction techniques and flexibility with eco-friendly principles to offer a glimpse into the future of sustainable living in tropical climates without compromising on the experience and the high-end quality of the design. Each villa features off-grid capabilities, including solar power, composting toilets, and rainwater collection systems, allowing residents to live in harmony with nature. Modular Tropical Villa design revolves around the idea of creating adaptable, energy-efficient home suited for tropical environments. Unlike traditional construction methods, which often rely on resource-intensive materials and practices, modular design emphasizes prefabricated components that can be easily assembled and customized to suit different needs. The Villas are specifically designed to withstand the challenges posed by tropical climates, including high temperatures, humidity, and heavy rainfall. Features such as elevated foundations, cross ventilation, and shading devices help regulate indoor temperatures naturally, reducing the need for artificial cooling systems.

These homes prioritize the use of eco-friendly materials such as recycled wood, and sustainable composites. By minimizing reliance on non-renewable resources and reducing construction waste, they contribute to a more environmentally conscious built environment. One of the key advantages of modular construction is its flexibility.

As the world grapples with the challenges of climate change and urbanization, modular tropical house design offers a compelling solution for sustainable living in tropical regions. By combining innovation, flexibility, efficiency, and environmental consciousness, these houses not only provide comfortable and resilient living spaces but also pave the way for a more sustainable future.

Modular tropical houses can easily be expanded or modified to accommodate changing needs, whether it's adding extra living space or incorporating renewable energy systems such as solar panels or rainwater harvesting. Tropical regions are often prone to natural disasters such as hurricanes, floods, and earthquakes. Modular construction techniques enhance the resilience of these houses, making them more resistant to extreme weather events and reducing the risk of damage or destruction.


THE FLOATING VILLA / MALDIVES

Luxurious Floating Villa with wellness at its heart.

The Floating Villa in the Maldives is designed as a floating structure to minimize environmental impact and keep the island’s lush natural landscape intact. Accessible via jetty and based on a modular, lightweight CLT structural system, the villa provides 4 master bedrooms, a spa, a rooftop wellness hub, a zen garden, multiple terrace decks, and a living space with an open kitchen. The program is broken into two clusters; the main blocks are connected with an outdoor garden opened up towards the sky, channeling the internal courtyard and allowing for natural ventilation throughout the building.

The streamlined design language of the villa is expressed through timeless and elegant form, finding the right balance between subtle nautical references and sleek modern architecture. A calm yet sophisticated design based on horizontal composition introduces a sense of visual balance internally and externally.

All living areas, including bedrooms and bathrooms, have exposure to beautiful views. At the same time, the wellness hub located on the rooftop is dedicated explicitly to rejuvenation, yoga, meditation, and contemplation of the natural surroundings.

Thanks to prefabricated cross laminated timber construction system, the house has minimal environmental impact with a minimal waste. Exposed thick pillars located along the perimeter organize the rhythm of the facade, and double function as a screen providing shade and privacy.


THE BALI HOUSE

Designed for private client, the architectural site of the house organizes a large program with minimal intervention to the landscape. situated on a steep slope overlooking a valley, the housing project generously integrates the plan with the surrounding environment and green space. Following a natural continuation of topography and flora and fauna, the main structure is built on two interweaving ‘ribbon’ structures, highlighting the timber and stone facade construction.
