Specification

Stacked Glazed Villas with Cantilevered Roof Overhangs

Defined by stacked horizontal concrete slabs and deep cantilevered roof overhangs, this contemporary villa establishes a fluid transition between light-filled interior living spaces and an expansive poolside terrace. Floor-to-ceiling glass sliding panels and integrated vertical timber screens balance structural lightness with environmental shading, casting crisp geometric shadows across the sun-drenched outdoor lounge.
