Description

W22 House is a private residential project located within a high-density urban area in Yogyakarta. The residence features a modern tropical architectural design, thoughtfully integrated with fundamental Feng Shui principles to guide its spatial layout. The three-story structure is organized into distinct functional zones: the ground floor accommodates service and utility areas, the first floor serves as the communal and social hub of the home, while the second floor is dedicated to private living spaces. The modern tropical design approach is reflected in both the spatial planning and material selection. The floor plan was developed in direct response to the client's needs, carefully considering the building's solar orientation, prevailing wind directions, and essential Feng Shui elements. Natural daylight is choreographed to enter the interior in a controlled manner, optimizing illumination in key areas. Despite being surrounded closely by adjacent buildings, the design leverages the tropical climate's year-round solar gain, transforming it into a strategy for passive lighting and energy efficiency. Expansive windows throughout various elevations facilitate cross-ventilation, promoting thermal comfort and reducing reliance on mechanical air conditioning systems. The material palette primarily consists of natural finishes, such as locally sourced stone and timber, which enhance a warm, textured, and contextually appropriate tropical ambience.
