Vision - The House of Mdm SC showcases the perfect blend of functionality, sustainability, and modern design, fully encapsulating the concept of ?new urban kampong?. Having grown up in the 1960s, the client had reminisced about Singapore?s old kampongs where sights of attap houses amidst luxuriant foliage were commonplace. This ?house in nature? is also in line with Singapore?s broad vision of ?a city in nature and taps into the house?s location near the country?s central nature reserve. In addition, with only about 10% of Singapore?s residential property being landed, the client wanted a house that exploits all the potential of landed living that cannot be achieved with condominium living. The vision for this house is to typologically recast a socially and environmentally connected mode of living while creatively fulfilling the pragmatic needs of the client?s family and guests. The final product is a house that embraces land living on four stories, creating exceptional value on a small plot of land with challenging features.
