About Artery Residence
Collaborative Creation in Architecture
A dynamic team of designers, fabricators, and builders joined forces, aiming to synergize the project’s delivery. Their integrated approach ensured that design, construction, and custom fabrication coalesced conveniently under one innovative roof.
Artful Atriums: The Pulse of the Home
At the heart of the residence’s design lie multiple three-story atriums, serving as the home’s lifelines. These vertical spaces ascend from a subterranean gallery, extending through the residence and fostering an interconnected flow. Along these atriums, art installations, highlighted by gentle, indirect lighting, create intentional spaces for reflection.
Furthermore, the client’s extensive art collection spills from the indoors to the landscape, establishing a dialogue between the home and nature. Likewise, the cantilevered roofs reach out, merging indoor luxury with the outdoor serenity. These sharp rooflines also underscore the home’s linear expression, simultaneously shaping the ingress of natural light with modern flair.
