Involvement began after piling works and ground slabs were completed... till now, structural works are done. Finishes are more or less chosen, nothing too fancy. A pity I wasn't involved in the conceptual design, but along the way, while running the proj on site, there were alot of detail designing involved, which was kinda fun...

Just the other day a colleague at work was pointing out that alot of private houses featured in magazines are very showy, hardly "private" or "personal" as it should be. Every corner, every surface has been filled with design elements, killing the space.

Hopefully, there'll be enough subtlety in the detailing of this house to achieve a certain balance... Perhaps it's why I like it now, in its bare naked form. Now the light and shadows and the texture of the deliberately pronounced formwork visible on the off-form concrete really appeals to me.

Going home early has its perks too...!
