Architecture Design of Hillside House

Description About The Project

Hillside House designed by Cote Architects is an impressive project, which set on the on the site’s highest point, offers a breathtaking views of the surrounding hillsides. From the exterior, the house covered with the green trees, makes itself blend in with the nature. The facade with green vines along the roof, corridor, and balcony moderates direct sun shining. While effectively allowing sun streaks to flow into the void and providing privacy for the internal area. Indeed, this is a useful way to minimize radiation and filter sunlight.

The designer’s aim is to establish an indefinite boundary so that people can be exposed to nature and that nature impacts humans in the most balanced way. The Hillside House, at its core, serves as a hub for reinforcing human-nature interaction.

The first and second floors two stacked boxes with continuously interwoven solid voids to effectively ventilate and bring more natural light into every corner. Hence, creating the living environment for the house itself. Also, the views penetrated through many layers of voids, generate the depth of the space.

On the other hand, the mezzanine formed by the altitude difference between the basement and the first floor. It is a terrace designed to connect the view from the hillsides to the home and vice versa. The expansion of the second floor above the block of the first floor and the mezzanine enables the house to control the sunny angles and create a shady area around the lower level. Besides, the shaded area between the second and mezzanine floors serves as an air buffer, allow the house to be ventilated and cooled.
