About Monolithic House Privévilla
Monolithic House is een privévilla in Jeddah. Het gebouw bestaat uit drie hoofdvolumes die ten opzichte van elkaar zijn verschoven om buitenhoven te creëren, in navolging van de indeling van traditionele Arabische huizen. De gevelschil maakt gebruik van semi-transparante schermen met een oud Saoedisch patroon, geïnspireerd op de Mashrabiya. Een gemotoriseerd, opengaand systeem reguleert het zonlicht, zorgt voor schaduw en privacy aan de zuidgevel en maakt natuurlijke ventilatie mogelijk. De constructie is van beton, afgewerkt met gehoond travertijn, zwart staal, stucwerk en notenhout. Aparte ingangen bedienen de familie, gasten en dienstverlening.

Press Kit
- Unique Properties
- Conceptual idea was to explore the architecture relation between indoor and outdoor spaces, through a composition of three main masses that were shifted to create external courts inspired from Arabic traditional houses. The house envelope was designed using semi-transparent screens, with old Saudi pattern that was inspired by (Mashrabiya), that have been used to give a dynamic visual interaction, guaranteeing privacy and shading on the south facade, and regulating the entry of sunlight by motorized openable system, while always allowing natural ventilation.
