The distinct structures of the house can define the intimate courtyard. This courtyard is designed as the house outdoor extension of the living space. It evolves from season to season and day to day as a play area, a quiet place for yoga, and also a comfortable patio for a barbeque. It is another best place of the house to enjoy quality time with the family.

Previously, the original main house has been chopped up. This house is also reworked once again to make an open plan. Some built-in elements are used to divide the house other than walls, connecting the spaces through the rich materials and also curated openings. The dividing elements can frame the views and create a dialogue between the house spaces.

This washroom is smooth and luminous just like the shell interior. The outer surface of the volume contrasts with the limestone and white oak. It is also articulated in a play of open and closed sections for the display and storage. The large mirror and beautiful lightings add more elegant style to the washroom.
