Design & Development

Design & Development

The solution I pursued was combining traditional Javanese architecture with a modern concept. By preserving approximately 70% of the building's exterior and improving the existing structure, a new, fresher design emerged. In some areas, the house feels very comfortable and modern, while in others, it respectfully reminds you of the building's original traditional Javanese character.

Concept

Concept

The detailed architectural concept focuses on blurring the lines between interior and exterior spaces through wide openings and the use of a transparent canopy facing an inner courtyard or side garden. New materials like exposed stone, concrete roster blocks, and metal accents are combined with wood-textured ceilings to maintain a tropical and warm ambiance. The interior layout uses the bar counter as an elegant visual divider between the lounge area and the kitchen, enhancing both functionality and interaction.
