In this next house designed by Metropolitan Office Experimental, we take a look at another very edgy and as the firm calls themselves, experimental creation at the Lien Collectives site.
In the planning of this house, it was the architect's idea to have 2 boxes inserted into each other. A wooden box and a lightweight one with a swimming pool. The expression is bold and daring. The interior, in a twist of creativity, is however very playful and kitch.
We entered via the side of the building, into the master bedroom/suite. The concept of a long bath was simply a sunken 'hole' in floor! Beyond that was the master bathroom and the basin.
The living room certainly opened up in a refreshing way - with the splayed lights in the ceiling and the lightweight concrete columns almost disappearing into the whilte space beyond. The living space also faces the long infinity edge pool which served to open the space even further.
At the end of the space is a super clean kitchen - all white and stainless steel that seemed to discourage the owner from ever cooking in it... A curious looking tree stands amid the kitchen, crowned with a skylight that was built to serve it only. Such an interesting sight...
There rest of the house had some details that was worth catching, but I reckon the primary impression for me for this house was the spaces within.
