In this week's episode, we delve into the architectural marvel known as "Outside In." This home embodies a core concept of Singaporean housing – the creation of outdoor spaces that offer shelter from both rain and sun while maintaining privacy.

The property, designed by Han, the founder and principal architect of HYLA Architects, was built for a family of five and their helper. One of its standout features is a twoandahalfstory entrance forecourt. This spacious area provides shelter from rain and sun with timber screens while promoting natural ventilation.

The clever positioning of timber screens allows air to flow continuously, providing a cool and refreshing ambiance throughout the house. The home faces eastwest, with the rear boasting elevated ground and picturesque views across the estate.

To combat the western sun, the design incorporates deep overhangs for the pool terrace and a suspended mezzanine study floor. These elements double as protective screens for the main living spaces.

From an external perspective, the house prominently features natural face brick, creating a warm and textured façade. Timber screens, laid both horizontally and vertically, further enhance the exterior, acting as a rooflike system to channel ventilation and block out rain.

Landscaping is thoughtfully integrated into the design, with plantfilled areas in the forecourt and upper levels, creating a natural and inviting atmosphere.

The doublevolume living room seamlessly combines the dining area and dry kitchen, surrounded by elements of nature. The pool area is cleverly shielded from neighbouring houses by a strategically placed Dracaena plant.

An interesting highlight is the circular timber enclosure housing a powder room, offering a convenient option for poolgoers.

As you ascend to the upper levels, a central study room becomes the focal point, allowing for easy interaction between family members. The master bathroom and one of the kid's bathrooms open up to serene landscape areas, providing a unique bathing experience.

The design not only enhances the living experience but also showcases sustainable practices by reducing the need for excessive air conditioning. Even during Singapore's hottest days, the house remains comfortable with just the use of fans.

"Outside In" presents a commendable step towards sustainable housing. By designing homes that require less air conditioning, it contributes to environmental preservation.

Special thanks to the homeowners and the designers for opening up their home to us.
