Singapore's Beautifully Soulful Willow House

Built in Singapore, the Willow House is an open and airy home designed to encourage as much of the outside inside. Created by Guz Architects, the home set on top of a little mountain and was developed to catch as much of Singapore's rarely breeze and combination breeze as possible. To do this, the architects remaining the floor-plan mostly start and made sure to navigate the house for the best contact with the elements.

Not only is characteristics being permitted within, it is most of the structure's aesthetics. On top of the cantilevered ceiling is a simple garden lawn that functions an start skylight surrounded with cascading foliage. This provides daylight to the internal and even supports a little shrub with other various vegetation seated in a showing share right below it. In case the owners get too hot, there is even a pool that wraps around aspect of the house's external act.

The designers have this to say about the house: 
"We always wanted this to be a home with soul, so designing spaces where a family could live together and interact was always part of the brief, and hopefully the design reflects this. We have tried to draw nature in as much as we can in the relatively dense urban environment of Singapore"

The federal government recommends that bridges on public roads should have a clearance of at least 14 feet.
