The Lien Collectives site plan. There are 6 houses in total. The overall planning was done by K2LD, who apparently was asked to do all the houses but declined. Instead, they suggested that 5 young architects/firms be given a chance to do a house on the plot (with K2LD doing one of the houses). This would yield fresh and interesting results, since there will be a variety of styles. The result was indeed interesting - with each house having a distinct style and character. The site used to be house for a single dwelling. This same house has since been retained as a clubhouse - to be shared with all the occupants of the 5 houses. It was the intent of the owner to lease the houses to anyone who wanted a unique experience. The clubhouse would be a common area where the tenants of the house can use for parties, gatherings etc. Tuesday, December 1, 2009

Actually the Clubhouse is for the use of the Lien family, it being the original family home, and not for the tenants of the other five houses.
