The project is a dwelling for a young family with 3 children with a building area of 1200 square meters. Perched on the rocky hills of Senggi, Lombok, Indonesia, this 1600 square meter land area has a steep profile, with a 25-meter difference between the main road level and the terminal boundary of the site providing the potential for an immersive sea level competition. The challenge lies in how to make the most of the potential of the existing site and create a private home in a spacious but well-defined area of land. The basis of this idea is when the architect determines the level of mass of the main building to achieve an infinite sea view. There are 3 building volumes overall, with 2 horizontal masses pointing towards the best viewing potential and the other being diagonally oriented to maximize the narrower rear land span. A series of outdoor spaces have also been created to enhance the sense of transition between exercise and function.

Due to the profile of the site, the vertical flow from the entrance to the highest point of the building becomes quite extensive. This sequence first creates a cave-like entrance in the form of a ramp. Then enter the living area via a semi-outdoor staircase. Between the living-dining area and the bedroom area, a family room is inserted as a transition area, visually connected to the master room area, as the core of the house for family members. A prayer room on the roof, accessed from a scenic staircase at the back of the house.
One of the challenges facing the project is the best landscape potential when facing west, with high solar radiation intensity all year round. The given gap between the building and the stone wall, as well as the thin building volume, allow good natural air circulation. In addition, the shading element in the form of synthetic woven vertical panels is installed at a certain inclination, directing direct sunlight to the building.
