It is a residential project with a spreading program on the plot horizontally. Based on the sun orientation and suitable views, the architect tries to get the advantages from the awesome site of the house and bring them into the house. The position and size of the house plot also can generate the building’s irregular shape.

There are some social areas with a valley view and all of them are glazed. A wooden vertical brise-soleil is applied on the west facade of the house to protect the living room from the bright afternoon sun. The bedrooms are also protected by sliding louvered doors while blank walls in the edges of the house can maintain the privacy and frame the interior views.
