Swollen Feet In Afternoon

Fish House - Special

This house of light materials and contemporary lines captures the essence of living in a hot and humid in Singapore, creating open spaces that seek to provide generous ventilation and ocean views.

The main concept behind the design was to connect to nature and landscape indoors. For this also resorted to a volume of water to connect the interior spaces with the landscape. The curved roof symbolize the waves and emphasize its proximity to the sea.

Part of the roof was covered with a thin layer of photovoltaic panels with the idea of \u200b\u200bcovering the cost of energy generated in their use.
