The client likes the original semi-detached house and wanted to renovate it to suit his lifestyle. He likes to entertain small to medium groups of friends, as he likes to cook and bake. As such, the entire first storey was designed so that guests can gather at different distinct spaces depending on the activity they were engaging in. The lush gardens at the first storey flow seamlessly into the interiors via operable full height glass doors. The second storey contain private resting and work spaces. The interior design was done by Scope ID.
