An imagined
point of view.
A fictional courtyard residence exploring how a home can feel both open to nature and deeply private.
The concept
An imagined courtyard sits at the heart of the house, giving everyday routines a shared point of orientation. Living spaces turn toward this sheltered outdoor room, while quieter rooms are arranged behind a sequence of thresholds. The concept explores a gradual transition from the energy of the street to the calm of home.
The design thinking
Deep eaves, shaded edges, and a restrained palette of timber and stone establish the proposed atmosphere. Rather than treating the garden as a view at the end of a room, this study imagines landscape as part of the route through the house.
