On a compact corner plot, surrounded by roads on two sides, our cost-effective home and studio embrace a varied mix of materials such as bamboo slats, matting, steel, and wood—creating simple trellises and textured soffits. Prioritizing functionality, cost-effectiveness, and ease of maintenance, the design incorporates technology where required, for secure locking systems, solar energy, automated watering, and lighting. Rough sponge finish sand-faced plaster, both inside and out, contributes to its unique appeal. Overlooking a lush green space, habitable areas enjoy tranquil views.
