Box Series House Type II
Naxxar, Malta
Box Series
House Type II by Daniel Scerri Periti
These 2 intertwined dwellings were
designed for a site within a small residential quarter on the island of Malta. This
brief for this project was the design & construction of 2 semi-detached
dwellings, homes for a mother & daughter. Instead of splitting the plots
vertically, side by side, the two dwelling units were intertwined, utilizing
the slope of the corner site to achieve an independent unit at lower ground
floor level [basement from higher road level] and a stepped-down two-storey
detached dwelling above [ground floor and first floor from the higher road
level], with the building envelope stepping down to follow the contours of the
site, such that at any particular point the building is always two floors above
road level.
The challenge on this site was to come
up with a solution that gains crucial living indoor and outdoor space while
respecting the planning regulations and aesthetic qualities of the villa area.
The result was a design that includes
a garden on two levels, ample basement garage space, added indoor area with
various spaces enjoying a varied degree of privacy, and a variety of outdoor
spaces, ranging from open to secluded, and creating an architectural promenade
through a route leading from public, to semi-public, to semi private, to
private space.
The living spaces were moulded around
a common entertainment pool area that is the meeting space between mother and
daughter’s family.
