The house’s design embodies principles of modern residential architecture, emphasizing harmony with its landscape, respecting the surrounding greenery and existing structures. The layout maximizes natural views and sunlight, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor connection through strategic placement of windows, skylights, and terraces.
The care home is positioned on a narrow, angular site with five sides that gradually taper at one end, resembling the shape of a pencil. Located at a prominent intersection surrounded by several neighbourhoods, the building naturally establishes a strong urban presence.
The narrow tip of the plot accommodates the main entrance and public areas, while the wider end opens out to a private garden. Each edge of the property is treated as a unique façade, thoughtfully designed to respond to the surrounding neighbourhood views and pedestrian pathways.
The building includes two residential units—one premium unit featuring a fireplace, larger floor space, and a private garden, and one standard unit with a private bath and ample natural light. Dedicated staff support areas ensure round-the-clock in-home assistance, while a fully accessible landscaped pathway encircles the building, providing effortless movement and connectivity throughout the site.
