Alleyway House

Singapore

Firm
YEAR
2008
SIZE
1000 sqft - 3000 sqft
Landlocked on 3 sides by party and rear walls of
neighbours, the house with its dominant linearity is conceptualised as an
“alleyway“. The “alleyway” with its porosity is crucial for effective
cross-ventilation through the dwelling. Organised along the open thoroughfare
are the extroverted communal spaces while the private spaces on the upper
floors are “hung” within enclosing walls. 

Against the cement-rendered wall sits the centerpiece of the
thoroughfare; a 2-storey cage structure which houses the family’s precious
parrots in the lower tier and on the upper tier, an outdoor shower accessible
from the master bedroom. Beyond the ground-level communal spaces, at the
“wall-less” front of the dwelling, a layer of plants shields the space from the
street for privacy.
