Designed as a contemporary response to its context, the residence is shaped through three descending levels that break down the overall mass and create a more welcoming scale. A contextual approach to planning, movement, and open space gives the home a sense of balance while creating a strong connection between architecture, light, and landscape.
Material warmth, filtered daylight, and measured openings help the home feel grounded in its setting while still offering a distinctly contemporary identity. The result is a residence that is not only visually memorable, but deeply usable in everyday life.
Three guiding decisions shaped the architecture, interiors and lived experience of STACKED HOUSE
The three primary levels are carefully stepped in elevation to break down the overall building volume and create a more approachable scale. This layered composition became the defining architectural expression of the residence — giving rise to its name, Stacked House.
The garden is intentionally positioned at the rear of the residence, creating a private outdoor retreat away from the street. The placement also allows the building itself to provide natural shade, creating a more comfortable and protected landscape environment throughout the day.
A double-height volume forms the spatial heart of the residence, bringing natural light deep into the home throughout the day. The staircase and puja space are integrated within this volume, transforming circulation into an architectural experience while giving the space both functional purpose and visual character.
