Apartments @ Kempas Bahru

Apartments @ Kempas Bahru Design Stage The development, in collaboration with Serie Architects, features 436 apartments in two towers. The complex also includes a row of shophouses on the south perimeter of the site, a clubhouse, extensive carparking, a swimming pool, outdoor party pavilions, bbq areas, children’s play area, gardens and tennis courts. The core concept of the tower design is to re-configure the relationship between living space and nature in high-rise living through layers of greenery where apartments are interspersed with garden terraces bringing nature and greenery into immediate proximity to living. The development aims to create not only an elegant and expressive architecture for the city of Johor but also generous and commodious living spaces for its residents. The idea of layering garden terraces across the full length of the apartment unit changes the relationship between interior and exterior space in the high-rise to create innovative and remarkable spaces. The landscape will also be a unique feature of the development. The layering of amenities, programmes, and natural features will create an intensity of experience and activity that will bring the landscape to life.

V Damansara, Kuala Lumpur

V Damansara, Kuala Lumpur

V Damansara, Kuala Lumpur Ongoing Consisting of 10 terrace and 2 bungalow units closely packed along a uphill slope,  V Damansara, is an alternative interpretation to the cluster housing typology where the main design strategy is to fragment the large surface area along a typical row of terrace units. This is achieved through the insertion of ‘courtyard sleeves’ between units, alternating the private lap pools between the front and rear elevation and the deliberate emphasis of the parti walls between units, provide rhythm, ambiguity and curiosity on the functional spaces within.   Program: Residential, Cluster Housing Location: Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia Area: 3,350 sqm Status: Ongoing        ...

Conjuring up an imagery of a vertical belt of glittery jewels, strung together horizontally by sky gardens on every level, The LUMOS, seeks to redefine the spatial experiences by challenging the conventional definition of private and public spaces defined in a conventional housing typology. Going against the norm, apartment units are detached from each other, thus offering an exclusive high-rise living that embraces the spectacular view line with all units having 100% views and privacy between units.

Lincoln Lodge, Singapore

Lincoln Lodge, Singapore

Lincoln Lodge, Singapore Design Proposal (2007) Located in one of Singapore’s most prestigious locales in terms of rising property value, LINCOLN LODGE, is a 36 storey high- end residential development set amidst an area with abundant healthcare facilities within a 2km radius. As a response to commercial viability, marketability, home owner demographics and site conditions, 2 proposed towers (one dedicated to 4- Bedroom apartment units with private pools and health spas and the other accommodating a variety of 1,2 and 3 Bedroom apartment units are deliberately pulled apart across the longitudinal site to create visual porosity and exclusive privacy between the units. The towers are then linked by 5 long-spanning garden plates and communal pavilions, also known as the ‘Vertical Club’, at 5 storey intervals. Thus reducing the span of the garden bridges. Regardless of the unit types, each unit features green spaces such as balconies and perimeter planters separating the rooms into individual micro pavilion- like spaces tucked within a garden. These ‘green slots’ manifests as aesthetic insertions on the tower’s façade and also design features for cross ventilation.   Building Type: Residential Location: Novena, Singapore Area: 16 500sqm Status: Design Proposal (2007)            ...

Ripples @ Sanya, Hainan Island, China

Ripples @ Sanya, Hainan Island, China 2008 Situated along the magnificent coastal beach line in Sanya, RIPPLES@Sanya is a residential development that draws its inspiration from the water element in its surrounding environment, in the form of small waves with undulatin folds to evoke the sensation of the energy ‘magnitude’ that radiates through the entire development. Consisting of 4 residential towers sitting atop a communal facilities podium, each of the towers consists of a mixture of 2-3 Bedroom apartments, served by a central life core cladded with an external shimmery masaic skin to reflect the glistening waters around. All units within the 4 towers enjoy full seaview, with larger units having panoramic balconies that take full advantage of the sea and nature views abound. The podium itself was created using forms of gentle waves folding in and out, creating various spatial platforms for different activities to take place. Concentrating on family oriented facilities, this activity podium brings about a new residential typology. A lifestyle redefined!
