About Heart By Tree 別墅
「樹心居」係一座位於馬來西亞姑侖布萊（Gunung Pulai）嘅別墅。呢座別墅由四個建築體量圍繞住一個中央庭院組合而成。臥室屋頂鋪滿草坪同柳樹植物，有助提升隔熱效果。兩棵高大嘅祖傳老樹被移植到基地入面，以表達對業主嘅感恩之情。鋅material同纖維構成草坪屋頂嘅底層結構，適合當地炎熱嘅氣候。裝飾方面重用咗工廠棄置嘅陶瓷磚、花崗岩同玻璃。整體佈局遵循傳統庭院式住宅嘅設計理念。

Apart from these two plant types, the designer also transplanted two iconic tall ancestral trees that signifies and serves as a token of gratitude to the owner’s great contribution to the society.

- Production Technology
- We complete the Heart by Tree to minimize construction costs and protect the environment. Due to the hot climate in Malaysia, we use zinc and fiber as the chassis of the lawn roof. In the decoration section, we look for some materials that have been abandoned by the factory, such as ceramic tiles, granite and glass.
- Design Challenge
- The villa was built on a hill and it rained heavily during the construction, it took three tries for the 5-tonne old tree to be successfully transplanted.
- Research
- We hope to build a leisure villa house that is unique in Malaysia.
- Inspiration
- The villa is built for summer weather throughout the year, situated in the humidity of a tropical forest. And hence, the designer is hopeful that the use of plants and ponds will bring in a harmonious blend of temperature, in and around the villa, to substantiate the serenity amidst the hustle and bustle. The layout and design of the villa also provides protection against the wildlife intrusion into the compound. The inception of the villa concept and its design, begins from the courtyard house concept, a unique Chinese architecture characteristic dated back two thousand years ago. The inspiration of the design is the modernization and innovation of traditional Chinese culture, and ultimately to create a cosy environment that brings families together.
- Project Duration
- The project started in October 2019 in Gunung Pulai and will finish in July 2020.
- Operation Flow
- From design to build.
