Best Architect Design for Homes | R House | Tropical Modernist Design | Architecture House Tour

Nestled amidst a shimmering expanse of water, this house is a true aquatic haven.

Imagine if you have a big plot of land, and you dont need it to be more than a single storey, how would you build it? Todays episode let us bring you through this home, called the R House, designed by Dr. Ken Yeang

Ken Yeang is an architect, ecologist, planner and arthor from Malaysia, best known for his ecological architecture and eco masterplans that have a distinctive green aesthetic. He pioneered an ecology-based architecture, working on the theory and practise of sustainable design.

Some would maximise the build up value and build a mansion, some choose to live modestly and contented, what are your preference?

I have been waiting for this episode. Thanks for uploading 😁

Single loading and creative use of space appropriately is so under rated compared to the typical need to build multi storey "palatial" homes with excessive stacking of levels serviced by elevators, stairs and endless corridors that have overcome the plot leaving little to no setback, little to no garden, barely a driveway or garage where the self entitlement is to leave the cars on the street. This house serves as a home where the essentials are met without the need for pretension.

R House, in the middle of the jungle, R House! A mess is not allowed. :) Love this Modern Tropical masterpiece. Well done!

This is my favorable house layout without stairs and just laying on a one single piece of land. Practical and easily accessible. Thanks to design seeds to cover this but I think I have come across this property some couple of years ago.

Simplicity and yet so practical. Beautiful home.

[eliza]

Wow."because it's the right thing to do "❤

The trees outside the fence are very beautiful.

[krisztinafoo]

The exterior is very mid century modern design.. simple and elegant!

[ernestkj]

wonder if the water can really cool off the hot weather these days or make it worse like a sauna? 😅

[khairulazmimk]

Always a dream for single storey with such designs

[angginugraha]

gorgeous house. can you share how many sqm the land is ?

[mrdzuan]

Is this in ulu tiram? Would like to see it in person one day

[soni-soni]

My type of house. Only difference is I would not use sliding doors instead doors that disappear into the wall.

[skmagicHQ]

Can a concrete flat roof handle Malaysia's yearly rain without internal leakage?

[unpostropicciato]

I always wonder why in those house architects never use dripping edge on top of the perimeter walls. those beautiful white walls will get stains soon

First I thought of this house design located at leisure farm JB.

[cheny]

I still cannot get over the security/safety of JB...

[andreandree]

The pool tiles in green makes the place looks kinda "old" in my opinion. Otherwise the house is nice.

[godricmusic]

This is a good house for elders. A retirement house for us

[akane]

The high humidity would make it so hot to be in the house especially without aircond.

Wonderful design but idk if it fit Malaysia weather.
