| DESIGN NAME: Dharmawangsa Residence PRIMARY FUNCTION: Residential Villa INSPIRATION: The house is interplayed with various floor levels not only to depict the importance of hierarchy, but also to create different experiences throughout the house. UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: As Jakarta is a flood prone area, the floor plate of the entire liveable space and lap pool was elevated by one level. Due to the tropical weather in South East Asia, the humid conditions were countered by creating a suitable design with proper cross ventilation, in promoting air circulation throughout the house. The sun’s movement pattern was studied over the entire year, to better understand and design the open areas, providing a natural, cool sheltered area over the swimming pool and outdoor communal area. OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: This residential design was planned from its geographic point of view. The main level was originally the same as the street level. The client requested to have more privacy, thus, it was recommended to elevate the entire property by one level. There were two aspects of interactions; one, how the owners and guests use each space, and the two, how to incorporate the fine floral and landscape from outside into the interior spaces. It was crucial for the spaces to flow seamlessly from public to private zones, and how each space can be hidden away. Other spaces were carved with intimate proportions. PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: The project started in April 2014 and finished in March 2016. It is located at Jalan Dharmawangsa Raya, Jakarta Selatan, Indonesia.

PRODUCTION / REALIZATION TECHNOLOGY: It starts from the construction methods, to the structure design and constant challenges, down to the unconventional and bold structure adaptations. Huge cavalier overhangs and creation of air pockets allow cross ventilation to flow through the property. Attaining and smoothening huge panels of glass for the sliding doors were a feat on its own. Marble slabs for all areas and the underside of the roof lattice colour were specially handpicked. Time a critical factor in convincing the builder with great craftsman talents, that good designs require extra efforts and attention to details. SPECIFICATIONS / TECHNICAL PROPERTIES: NA TAGS: Residential, Architecture, Cross Ventilation, Luxury, Villa RESEARCH ABSTRACT: A one year study on the sun movement over the property interprets the usage of the facilities and the mechanism of the large overhangs. It defined how the owners could make use of the spaces. The design provided a proper solution to overcome tropical conditions faced at the property. While huge roof overhangs and covered areas managed the sun and rain, the massive sliding doors and pockets of air wells at the rear allowed fresh air through the property. Bringing in the landscape adds freshness and foliage to the private areas, allowing the owners and guests to immerse themselves with nature. CHALLENGE: The geographical factors make this plot of land very compact. Privacy, climate and weather conditions added on to the problem. The first rule of thumb was to not over build the property. The second was to ensure that every space has a spectacular experience. Third was the design of the roof to keep most of the glass facade of the house under the shade. A more efficient cooling system was achieved, further enhanced by the support of cross ventilation through its corridors, walkways and air wells. With its minted comfort, owners can use many parts of the house and spaces in most weather conditions.
