House for a modern couple

Designed for a modern couple seeking a sanctuary within a compact urban plot, this residence redefines "small-scale living" through a lens of cozy sophistication. The project prioritizes human-centric proportions and atmospheric richness over sheer volume, proving that luxury is found in the quality of space rather than the quantity of square footage.

Ground floor: the journey begins with a functional car porch that transitions into a fluid sequence of sitting, dining, and kitchen areas. This level also hosts a secluded bedroom and bathroom, ensuring convenience and accessibility.

Private quarters: the upper floor is dedicated to rest and recreation, featuring a central TV lounge—the heart of the family’s evening routine—and three tranquil bedrooms served by two well-appointed bathrooms.

Rooftop pavilion: the experience culminates on the roof, which has been transformed into an elevated outdoor living area.
