The Taft is a 3,930-square-foot, two-story, open plan house designed and built using HOMB, a prefabricated modular system developed by Skylab in collaboration with MethodHomes. The system provides an alternative to the typical time-consuming process of conventional site construction while also minimizing waste through precision prefabrication.

I was inspired to design this house in the middle of jungles, to be like a big honey moon sweet. A curved surface with big windows and a lot of skylight on the inside. A green pool to represent peace and some orange materials to warm us up.

The designing of a home is apparently designing a lifestyle. It is not only bringing together the soil, climate, material but also weaves the lifestyle of the inhabitants. For each design and client there is a unique combination of influences – people, places, events, memories and perception which they have absorbed and observed.

Unlike the majority of medium density infill in Perth, The Strand aims to maximise outdoor space and reduce the impact of the urban heat island effect. Much of Perth’s Urban infill has little regard to the site, orientation and the homes seek to maximise the footprint. This approach creates hot homes with dark outdoor living areas.

The project area is around 450 square meters. At the same place, there was a family house of the same customer, so the goal of the design task was to preserve the atmosphere and character of the old house, the space was planned taking into account the opinion of each family member and according to their needs.

At Acaso House, blocks arranged in an almost random fashion form a sculpture garden. The delight of the inhabitants is divided between contemplating the spectacular view of the mountains and contact with the small waterfalls formed on rainy days. Nature and art.
