Bold in form and fluid in function, the house is conceived from merging the tropical language with contemporary lines and structure. The design reinterprets the traditional Iban Longhouse, with family communal areas outside the bedrooms to foster family integration.With the inward-looking orientation of the house, its facade and presence from the main road is kept subtle and non-descriptive, giving only little hints of what lies beyond.
Aamer Taher’s designs are well known for their ‘flair and curves’, its playfulness and departure of conformist shapes. Or one could say, his architecture is an extension of his character. He views every project as a work of Art, conceived through thorough appreciation of site, context and brief. Each is carefully sculptured to good-humouredly fit into the site while keeping client’s brief intact and with due care to cost efficiency. As Aamer says; “We are not angular and straight, Nature is not angular and straight.”
