The Design
About Monolithic House Willa Prywatna
Monolithic House to prywatna willa w Dżuddzie. Budynek składa się z trzech głównych brył, które zostały przesunięte względem siebie, tworząc zewnętrzne dziedzińce, zgodnie z układem tradycyjnych domów arabskich. Elewacja wykorzystuje półprzezroczyste ekrany z dawnym saudyjskim wzorem inspirowanym maszrabiją. Zmotoryzowany system otwierania reguluje dostęp światła słonecznego, zapewnia zacienienie i prywatność na południowej fasadzie oraz umożliwia naturalną wentylację. Konstrukcja jest betonowa, wykończona szlifowanym trawertynem, czarną stalą, tynkiem strukturalnym i drewnem orzechowym. Oddzielne wejścia służą rodzinie, gościom i obsłudze.

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.
