Wallflower Architecture + Design has sent us photos of a home they recently completed in Singapore, that features an exterior covered in plants.
The house, cloaked in vines and vegetation, and nestled among lush green overgrowth, stands at the edge of the Singapore Botanic Gardens and was designed to have natural elements seamlessly integrated into its structure.
The exterior of the house boasts a veil of contemporary privacy and sunscreens, supported by clean lines and large glass windows that provide views of the surrounding greenery. A swimming pool surrounded by tall trees creates a quiet place to relax on a hot day
Inside, the glass walls open to connect the interior spaces, like the living room and dining room, to the outdoors.
The privacy and sunscreens, as well as the vines growing on the exterior, can be seen from the interior of the home, scattering sunlight throughout the home.
Natural materials have been used throughout the home and include travertine, granite, earth-toned fabrics, and high-performance wood.
At the top of the stairs, a shaded seating area enjoys uninterrupted views of the gardens.
Other areas of the home, like the home office, have large windows, while the roof overhang provides shade.
The home also includes a gym with a mirrored wall reflecting the light and scenery.
In one of the bedrooms, the color palette has been kept neutral with the plants outside providing a green accent.
In the bathroom, a freestanding bathtub is positioned in front of a double shower.
