Project #4
PROJECT #4 is a multi-generational tropical bungalow in an exclusive residential enclave of 106 semi-detached houses and 3 bungalows, located in Central Singapore.
The project seeks to address and reflect the contemporary conditions in the tropical Island-state: Land scarcity, Urbanization and Changing Demography leading to the increasing need to live collectively in large multi-generational houses yet autonomously as individuals. From the urban design aspect, the house is a Nodal Point in a development of repetitive housing types and design.
The result is the fragmentation of a big house into a group of small prismatic sand-coloured volumes, arranged in a flower-like pattern and linked by black-coloured ‘connectors’ akin to many Small Houses in a Big House.
