Inspired by the Zen minimalism, the design has stripped away all the frills and excessive elements, leaving out only the essentials having their own purpose to exist. 

The entrance opens into the living space which extends beyond to the Zen garden designed to elaborate ‘absence’ which triggers boundless imagination and creativity in your mind. The inside and outside meet here, thus you may truly not know if the natural elements are outside or are part of your interior space.
The textures of the materials are appreciated by exposing the grains of the wood and the rough surface of the stones.

Minimal transition between indoor and outdoor, facilitated by sliding door windows gives access to the garden. Living, Dining, Pantry, Upper Floor TV Lounge and the Zen garden are visually connected with each other, giving you a mindful experience.
