YEOVIL RD, TE ATATU PENINSULA
Design Brief
Our client is a developer who comes with a very clear goal and needs of this project – to maximize the area and plan to pre-sold in advanced to mitigate the construction burden and finance pressure.
Land Info
This corner site is 1573m² and zoned in Terrace Housing and Apartment Building, with a beautiful wide visual field and relatively steep terrain. Transportation is convenient at this site but it is close to the road curve area.
Design Story / Concept / Philosophy
Consider to the demand of cosy living space corresponding to the living population, to improve the comfort of the space is crucial. Which includes the diversified living space, light intensity, indoor and outdoor circulation, noise situation, expansion of the view and also the privacy between neighbors’ protection.
Since the terrain is relatively steep makes the high slope requirements of the driveway, we have designed the split-level townhouse without a garage in the steepest place, thereby reducing the use of retaining walls and maximizing the use of land area. This “split-level” design also increases a sense of hierarchy and uniqueness which brings each houseowner a stronger sense of belonging.
Outcome
For the small units, we use the design of garden to extend the cramped interior space to open. The window design is also used to capture the view and bring out the fresh breath in time to comfort our occupants.
In terms of the high acceptance to different design of our client, we are doing the best to contribute to maximizing the area by building a density design of 19 units without losing the quality of living in each household, along with the attractive exterior design and internal layout to offer the buyers a quality homes within a reasonable price range.
The site has come into two types of design. 13 units of 70m² living area comes with 2-bedroom, 2-storeys without garage, plus 6 units of 130m² living area with 3-bedroom, 3-storeys with a garage.
This is the ultimate effect we want to achieve in this project design.
