From the architects

This new house in Singapore has a central water court that forms the focal point of the house. The planted roof gardens surround this and add to the effect that nature is evident in every part of the house. Our main endeavor was to create a residence with seamless integration of the surrounding nature but at the same time providing privacy from neighbouring properties……water played a key role in achieving this had to play a key role in achieving that.”

The upper floor roof gardens connect the more private bedrooms with greenery and views down into the courtyards.
