Garden Void House
Alva Roy Architects
Garden Void House-Floor Plans. The house is set at right angle to a stream with adequate setbacks, in part to avoid obstructing neighbor’s view. The living area oriented to the south and its view toward the natural setting is assured by an 8-meter long window placed at the south side of the building. Interior design follows the geometric alignments of the overall plan, making for a variety of spaces and views beyond what the basic rectangular plan might suggest.Bedrooms placement (children’s bedrooms facing north and parent’s bedroom facing south) meets one aspect of the original brief that the clients wished to have separate area for themselves and children on the second floor.

Garden Void House- Section. Garden Void House was to generate the specified amount of natural light and visibility to ensure the interior spaces remain bright while maintaining a sense of privacy. To do this, horizontal narrow windows designed on the west, faced to the street side and create a sense of privacy while harvest natural light thought out the day and control glare and heat along the long west face of the building. Two large openings located at the same side beside the “Garden Core” brings just the right amount of light to the lower level through the Garden Void and evokes positive emotional responses from the client and his family who lived in.
