House at Urat Mata
Standing among lavishly designed detached houses along Lorong Urat Mata 4, this 2-storey detached house stands out with its unorthodox screen façade made up of rectangular vent blocks. The vent blocks are meticulously arranged as a screen that covers nearly half of the first-floor exterior, strategically shading the master bedroom and balconies from both the eastern and western sun.
An open stairwell in the middle creates an exclusive space in the living room with garden views all around. Nevertheless, the overall open layout eliminates the distinctive boundaries of the family, dining, and kitchen areas. Contrasting with the openness of the ground floor, the first-floor spaces are designed with privacy in mind, using external screens without compromising their visual connections to the exterior.
