ES House

The concept for ES-House is that of 3 stone walls breaking through the entire villa, dividing the form and functions. The height and density of these walls control the views around the villa - breaking down in the courtyard to create wider views and benches, and the services are hidden using taller structures. The open plan of the main living spaces allows the use to experience the materiality of these walls throughout the house. The volumes are further defined in elevation by a mix of wooden panels and plaster. The main Majlis and master bedroom exploit the angle of the site, maximizing the view of the garden, and further emphasizing the different volumes.
