26 Mount Kellett Road, The Peak, Hong Kong
26, Mount Kellett Road, Hong Kong Island, Hong Kong
This is a low-density residential redevelopment to build three low rise
homes, replacing a 12-storey buildingin The Peak area of Hong Kong. The unique location
provides the
superb views of the South China Sea.
The three houses rise up
from the natural hill slope as three massive blocks of granite, the “Granites”,
defying gravity as they stand on sheer stretch of glass walls. The podium carpark
abutting Mount Kellett Road forms the ultimate bases to these three floating
“Granites”.”
The “Granites” are sliced with strips of glazing, not only bringing
in views, light and air to inside, but also creating rhythm to the external
facade. At the same time, views are well controlled to maintain privacy for the
three closely located houses.
The “Granites” floats by means of large glazing walls
defying gravity. Transparency is fully expressed on garden levels with full
integration of interior space into surrounding landscape and pools.
The “Granites” are crafted with textures. Large rugged
stone panels form the major cladding of the houses. The whitish grey stone
panels are hammer-brushed. These panels are shadow-casting tools creating infinite
shifting shadows at different times of the day. Liveliness are given to the
static “Granites” with changing expressions.
The “Granites” are pierced through by individual scenic
lifts and staircases down to the carpark level. The lifts and staircases are
major circulation tools located at the perimeter of the blocks which serve not
only used as communication between floors, but also communication between the
inside and the outside of the houses.
