The concept for Terrace Estate 15 comes forth from the desire to completely live outdoors. The kitchen and living areas are situated outdoors, and are covered by a large wooden roof construction acting as a canopy.

The master bedroom, guest bedroom and home cinema are placed a-asymmetrical below the wooden roof structure, creating a playful composition of cubistic forms and sloped roof surfaces.

CANOPY ROOF

CONCEPT

The concept of completely living outdoors below a large wooden “canopy” originated from Bali, living outdoors and creating a direct link with nature from the main living areas. Behind the villa a refined tropical garden area was created, to relax and experience a totally different environment.

Used materials

Variety of natural materials

A natural blend of rustique  materials combines the indoors and outdoors. The base materials consist of concrete, white stucco and wood which are complimented with natural stone accents.

Shades of black can be found in the roof structure, aluminium facades and pool coating, flawlessly creating coherence between the used materials.

JUNGLE GARDEN

Behind the villa a bali themed garden was created. The various garden areas are connected by concrete stepping stones surrounded by pebble stone. The center piece of the garden is a dark toned pond creating a rustic atmosphere.

Directly behind the pond a wooden gazebo is built to relax, enjoy nature and creating a connection with the two fully equipped apartments situated below the main residential areas.

INDOOR/OUTDOOR MASTER BATHROOM
The hovering washbasin in front of a large glass façade integrates the indoors with the outdoors. This visual connection is accentuated by placing large rocks found on the plot inside and outside the bathroom area.
