The footprint of the house, which is a result of plot size limitations and spatial requirements of the clients, takes on the whole allowed ground floor size. As a result, we came across a challenge which we are very much used to, with a solid enclosed shape and limited garden space.

Rooted Home is a 2 story apartment for a family of 6. A root evolves under ground, and functions as an anchor. Roots are the organs of a plant that are modified to provide anchorage for the plant and take in water and nutrients into the plant body, which allows plants to grow taller and faster.
