Hideaway House stands on an elevated plot in eastern Singapore, shaped by Ming Architects as both climate response and urban refuge. The house rises three metres above the street to meet flood regulations and push daily life away from the traffic, turning the main rooms inward toward filtered light, private gardens, and quiet views. An intricate skin of metal screens and natural finishes deepens the sense of withdrawal from the suburban row outside.
Thompson House sets down on a steep site in West Vancouver, Canada, where harbour and mountain views pull in opposite directions. Designed by splyce design, the house navigates that tension with long cedar wing walls, covered decks, and a pinwheel roof that coax light and privacy into balance. It’s a house for gathering, but also for retreat, with circulation that choreographs movement and sightlines across levels.
Singapore-based design firm ONG&ONG envisions the BECA-House, a private residence designed in 2019. Featuring rectilinear lines, this modern dwelling incorporates spacious and well-ventilated areas, enhancing its fluid design.
The house caters to multigenerational living, with thoughtfully designed interiors accommodating both communal and private spaces, such as the lush deck off the master bedroom for the grandparents and owners.
