The Brief
A family of five asked for a home that felt open to the sky but private from a busy Dhaka street. They wanted generous shared rooms, quiet corners for study, and outdoor space they could use through the monsoon season.
Design Approach
We organised the plan around a double-height living volume and a series of shaded terraces. Deep overhangs and perforated brick screens filter the afternoon sun, while a central stair brings daylight into the core of the house.
Materials & Light
Exposed concrete, locally fired brick, and teak joinery form a restrained palette. Clerestory windows and recessed lighting keep the evening atmosphere warm without visual clutter.
