A double-height dining room precedent by RDA Architects featuring massive vertical window bays and crisp plaster piers, ideal for studies in monumental residential scale and natural illumination.
- What we like about this project
- The textured organic form of the glass pendants contrasts sharply with the rigid rectilinear geometry of the structural piers.

- Geometry
- Double-height orthogonal dining volume framed by massive white plaster piers and floor-to-ceiling glass openings.
- Facade system
- Full-height structurally glazed window wall between structural piers.
- Structural guess
- Concrete or steel frame with non-loadbearing curtain wall or full-height glazing infill.
- Spatial scale
- Generous double-height volume; dining table sits at human scale under soaring vertical windows.
- Lighting
- Bright, diffused daylight floods through the expansive rear glazing, augmented by decorative textured glass pendants casting soft glints.
- Atmosphere
- Luminous, serene, and vertically grand.
- Environmental context
- Interior room looking outward to a landscaped terrace and mature trees against an overcast sky.
- Spatial experience
- The space feels expansive and airy, with deep vertical proportions drawing the eye upward toward the clerestory level while framing lush exterior garden views.
- Composition rhythm
- Alternating sequence of solid white plaster piers and transparent vertical glass modules.
