Contemporary L-shaped house in Singapore by Guz Architects – The Tangga House

Located in Singapores, the contemporary house with L-shaped plan was designed by Guz Architects. This Tangga house is designed with the aim to gives the owners the opportunity to live in harmony and comfort with nature, in singapores hot tropical climate.

Description from Guz Architects :
The house is a contemporary interpretation of a traditional courtyard house, laid out around a central green courtyard with a double height stair and entry area forming the focal point of the project. The L-shaped plan creates open spaces which encourage natural ventilation and offer resident’s views over the courtyard to the verandah, roof gardens and beyond. Lushly planted roof gardens surround the house and add to the effect that nature is evident in every part of the house. The large roof above the courtyard creates an indoor and outdoor space leading to the gardens and swimming pool which wraps around two sides of the house. The tangga house hopefully gives the owners the opportunity to live in harmony and comfort with nature, in singapores hot tropical climate.
