Modern tropical bungalow design

By 1 Kind Design  //  Architecture, Eco Design  //  1 Comment


Singapore-based Guz Architects have designed the Fish House, an eco-friendly seafront house in Singapore, showcasing seamless integration with the surrounding nature. The modern tropical bungalow features interior spaces that are open to the exterior to encourage natural ventilation along with incredible views of the ocean; all of which has been designed to offer a suitable dwelling to its inhabitants in the tropical climate of Singapore. The main focus of Guz Architects, while designing the Fish House, was to create a residence with seamless integration with the surrounding nature. Water played a key role in achieving this. The architects have created a swimming pool that links the house with the landscape and offers visual connections with the sea. The basement level media-room with a u-shaped acrylic window permits abundant natural daylighting inside along with offering views out into the pool. The house is distinct with curved roofs reminiscent of the sea waves. The roof has been clad with thin, bendable photovoltaic panels supplying energy to the home. A part of the roof is left as a green roof, giving residents some outdoor leisure spaces. Via

  • wow, that is really nice. I love the “out of the box” design on this one. No typical structure here.
