Residence 239
Project Context
Residence 239 is a beautiful blend of rustic charm and contemporary architecture, nestled on a
magnificent 6000-square-foot site. This concept aims to design a home that not only blends in with
Imagery ©2023 Airbus, CNES / Airbus, Landsat / Copernicus, Maxar Technologies, Map data ©2023 500 m
its surroundings but also maximizes the infusion of natural light. The goal is to create a living area
that reflects nature’s tranquility while yet providing modern conveniences.

Ground Floor
The ground floor is designed in an open plan layout where each space seamlessly blends and takes
one around the whole floor. Comprised mostly of social and semi social spaces, the ground floor has
double-height spaces, gathering spaces and a fresh tropical vibe to it.
12 13

Living Room
A double-height living area serves as a major focal point that reflects the heart of the architectural
philosophy. This area serves as the house’s nucleus, a place where design, usefulness, and aesthetics
all come together in perfect harmony. As you enter this space, your gaze is attracted upward to
a chandelier that delicately hangs from the ceiling. This vertical connection extends beyond the
immediate space, visually connecting the ground floor with the upper floors of the residence and
creating a sense of continuity throughout.

Dining Room
The dining space adjoining the living area is a double-height space that becomes the focal point
of the house. It becomes a space to gather and socialise with guests even if someone is in the
neighboring spaces. Antique furniture design and a bright rustic fabric highlight the dining space
further. The space is defined by a Kota Stone flooring, making it a distinguished space that goes
unnoticed.

Kitchen
The Kitchen is a fairly simple and minimalist space. With basic utilities and appliances, the design
of the kitchen is majorly functional. A breakfast table is placed between the kitchen and the living
room making it a socialising space or a space for a quick morning breakfast. Wooden surfaces and
high chairs make it a perfect space for connecting with the occupants sitting in the living room.

Family Room
A family room on the ground floor is a defined private space for the family members to gather and
spend leisurely time together. It has a tropical theme with wooden floors and furniture in shades of
green. It is a perfect space to enjoy a movie night with the family on weekends.
26 27
www.buildofy.com Residence 239 | Design 360
Staircase
A very interesting staircase sits in the centre of the house. Its, almost like an amphitheatre that
becomes another space to gather and socialise. Half of the staircase made in Kota stone and the
other half made in steel, the staircase is a perfect balance of solid and light structure. It is flooded
with natural light thanks to the skylight overhead. The design of the glass and concrete louvers
of the skylight ensure the staircase and the space below do not heat up at any time of the day.
The courtyard and skylight over the staircase ensure sunlight inside the house throughout the day,
creating interesting skiagraphy on wall surfaces.

Master Bedroom
The design approach focuses on subtly shaping the function of living spaces, while also highlighting
the core purpose of the bedroom as a sanctuary for relaxation and rest. With simple walls and a
natural ceiling, the room features art pieces that add a comforting charm. A clutter-free environment
lets the room embrace the calming ambiance of twilight and dawn. Amidst furniture, white bedding,
and walls, this bedroom transforms into a peaceful oasis, offering serenity and tranquility.
