About the project (provided by the applicant)
This project’s spatial concept creates a compelling dynamic between interior and exterior spaces, offering a variety of scales and rich sensory experiences. By moving beyond the traditional X and Y axes and adding the Z axis through innovative void arrangements, it builds strong connections with both the sky above and the ground below. Each level is designed to enhance this sensory experience. Programmatic choices are thoughtfully made for versatility, creating diverse experiences throughout the space. For example, in the living room, occupants can enjoy stunning views of the sky, pool, and outdoors all at once, fostering an invigorating and interconnected atmosphere. In the pool area, the combination of sky and central space further enriches the experience. On the first floor, users can immerse themselves in the blended sensations of the living room, pool, and sky.
