Creating an oasis in the heart of Jakarta was the initial idea of this house. Combining the comfortable green, natural and tropical nuance of bali with the natural beauty and freshness of bandung, it was hoped that there were open space to be brought about and covered the house.
Having quite a long and turning site in the rear, such initial idea geared the creation of a building with specific corners that produced a dynamic movement of the owner, not to mention variety of vistas. Private areas in this house are within two blocks of parallel building that correspond to the front road. The block at the frontage accommodated service areas, reception room, quest bedroom and audio-video room where as block in the rear provides spaces for children bedrooms, main bedroom and bathrooms.
These blocks are separated by a long green garden with a fish pond and connected by a living room and dining room having high void.
These rooms are actually the heart of this house, being precisely at the junction of two axes and flanked by two gardens which controlled air circulation of the house. Up stair, there is a bridge to connect inside to the outside that may be approached through a stair having two different axes as well.
