Tangga House By Guz Architects

The Tangga House is another of Singapore’s dream homes designed by Guz Architects. Completed in 2009, the 7,663 square-foot residence is located in Holland Village, an elite Singapore district famous amongst the expatriate community.

The luxury single-family home allows the owners to live in harmony and comfort with nature in Singapore’s hot tropical climate.

Tangga House By Guz Architects:

“The house is a contemporary interpretation of a traditional courtyard, laid around a central green courtyard with a double-height stair and entry area forming the project’s focal point.

The L-shaped plan creates open spaces which encourage natural ventilation and offer residents views over the courtyard to the veranda, roof gardens, and beyond. Lushly planted roof gardens surround the house and add to the effect that nature is evident in every part of the house.

The large roof above the courtyard creates an indoor and outdoor space leading to the gardens and swimming pool which wraps around two sides of the house.

Maryland Drive is a modest and luxurious residential design that allows residents to live harmoniously and comfortably with nature.”
