Deprived from all forms of ornate clutter and fancy flair this home is true to its modernist architecture – strong horizontal composition with large open floor plans, intentional asymmetry and large expanses of glass windows and glass walls. The idea was to create a simplified home with the focus on function by removing all unnecessary frills. True to its modernist nature the architect sought to include huge, spacious floor plans where the living areas flow seamless into each other. The blurred boundaries between the indoors and outdoors give the homeowners a chance to feel more connected to nature whilst the use of a monochromatic colour palette and rich materials indoors secure the warmth needed in a family home. Broad roof overhangs create outdoor entertainment areas that will simply
take your breath away. The style is not sentimental, it is innovative, and function driven.
