As one of the main demands of the client was the lighting, the architects gave full focus on this. They installed a controlled shading system by which the homeowners can easily control the amount of natural light. With that, they also provide enough artificial lighting both outdoors and indoors. LIGHT DESIGN ENGINEERING KOBER has designed and implemented the whole lighting concept.

The building is clearly divided into two sections of the natural light. The light will enter through the glazed walls into the living room. The tail height of the dining space with the outside is around 3.50 m wide which also has the double-side damper doors.

The paneling across the windows is extended to provide a homogeneous surface on the outside and prevent the view inside. Here the light filters create a playful effect of light and shadow. The main benefit of this thing is that this will keep the dwelling cool down in the extremely hot weather conditions.

A DALI lighting control system is installed so that the residents can operate the lighting according to them. They operate not only the motion sensors, switchable sockets, and luminaires but also the pool’s watering system. Brilliant, right?
