The Box House.

Nestled in an acre of Satinwood Trees, this villa is constructed almost entirely by the adaptive reuse of discarded shipping containers. This 2080 sqft villa comprises 5 Bedrooms and 5 open to sky bathrooms entirely housed within 5 containers, with separate living area tying the spaces together.

Conceptualised after the traditional Asian house, albeit the non-conventional construction method, the living spaces are built surrounding a central courtyard, which cools and ventilates the living and dining spaces, and truly invites the outdoors in.

The very limited use of cement, (one of the biggest contributors of Carbon dioxide to climate change) meant near zero emissions. Further, the house reuses approximately 17,500kg of steel, saving time, and using less than 10% of new resources. At the end of its lifespan, the steel can be recycled again.

The project was unable to benefit from solar power to produce electricity without reducing the heavy tree cover, so instead chose to use it to minimize heat gain using the shade from the satinwood trees. However, it does produce solar powered hot water, maximizes natural daylight and ventilation, and conserves up to 20% water with efficient fittings.

The Riv.

The Riv was conceptualised as an ode to the log cabins that traditionally scatter the surrounding mountains -  but with a contemporary and bold twist. 

On the exterior, the sharp rigid edges contrast with the soft hills and valleys that ebb and flow around it; while the interior remains minimal, with hints of warm pine to exude the feel of a luxury log cabin.  However, the villa itself isn't meant to be looked at - it's a place to look from

Every window is carefully placed to frame a different view, and the rapidly changing landscape is one that you can watch tirelessly for hours while enjoying a cup of hot tea on the bay window seat, or without ever leaving your bed. We even put in a glass roof so you can enjoy the sight of the milky way right from the living room on a clear night. What better way to be completely immersed in the beauty that unfolds around you, than from a villa that was designed for exactly that?
