With Its Open Spaces And Dramatic Central Staircase, This Semi-detached House By Renaissance Planners & Designers Is A Strikingly Liveable Home Built For The Tropics.
This semi-detached house doesn’t reveal much at first glance. Through its perforated screens and the greenery in front, you catch glimpses of the interiors, hinting at the spaces within. Named the Screen House, the project by Renaissance Planners & Designers bagged the Platinum A’Design Award Winner in the Architecture, Building and Structure Design Category, 20132014. Completed within 16 months, designer Kelvin Bing transformed what was once a dark house with poor cross-ventilation into a modern home full of natural light, with ample ventilation for the tropical climate.
