H+M House’s Challenge:
Designed by e. Re studio, H+M House Started from the need for an unblocked view, the client briefed us to create a house that enabled them to enjoy the view from many areas of the house. Located in a high-end residential estate in the northern part of Bandung. 3 Storey houses in Bandung with unblocked hill & valley views of eastern Bandung.
Another challenge of H+M House was to create quite a lot of space for the client’s future needs in a relatively not-too-large land plot. We combined both unblocked view potential & the need for space in this modern-style house. The exterior part was dominated by black paint color to reduce the glare due to its east-west orientation.
We also created a large hanging wall as a shade against the hot western sun. The interior part was dominated by white color and timber accent to keep the warm ambiance.
The timber element was displayed beautifully on its floating teak staircase as one of the features. Climate-wise, this house requires no aircon and is flooded with plenty of natural light. Fresh air will continuously flow in and out. For sure, the client will have a relatively low utility bill.
