Being immersed in nature has many benefits. Better air quality, green views, and natural light and ventilation contribute to a heightened sense of calm as well as improved productivity. This bungalow, designed by DP Architects, boasts all of these qualities and more.
At the core of this home’s design is a tight relationship with nature—its structure has parts chiselled out and filled with verdant courtyards, roof terraces, backyards and water bodies, says Teoh Hai Pin, the project’s lead architect and director of DP Architects.
GREEN RETREAT
This house is an oasis for a retired couple who live here with their son and his young family; their daughter resides overseas but returns during the holidays. On the first storey, the living area, family room, kitchen and guest room border a formal dining space at the plan’s centre. The second storey houses bedrooms for the son and his wife as well as their young children, while the elder couple’s master bedroom and daughter’s bedroom are located at attic-level in separate wings. Green decks and corridors between these spaces offer a sense of privacy.
