This house sits within the Ang Mo Kio planning area, shaped by URA’s 3-storey envelope control guidelines. Nestled within a dense urban fabric, this five-storey semi-detached residence redefines modern city living through vertical layering, natural light, and sustainable design principles. The architecture breaks down the massive form into distinct volumes, creating a rhythmic composition interspersed with green voids and terraces.
These landscaped pockets bring light and ventilation deep into the home while establishing a seamless connection between interior and exterior spaces. Each level is designed to serve a specific lifestyle function, from communal and social areas on the lower floors to private sanctuaries above, maintaining a sense of openness and continuity throughout.
The facade is articulated with a refined material palette of perforated screens, concrete textures, and timber fins, balancing privacy with permeability. The screens filter sunlight and promote cross-ventilation, reducing heat gain and reliance on mechanical cooling. Rainwater harvesting and low-energy lighting further enhance the home’s sustainable footprint, ensuring that beauty and responsibility coexist seamlessly.
