The modern tropical bungalow with open spaces that encourage natural ventilation and offers views to the ocean, has been designed to offer a suitable dwelling in the tropical climate of Singapore.
The main focus of Guz Architects, while designing the Fish House, was to create a residence with seamless integration with the surrounding nature. Water played a key role in achieving this. The architects have created a swimming pool that links the house with the landscape and offers visual connections with the sea.
The basement level media-room with a U-shaped acrylic window permits abundant natural light inside along with offering views out into the pool. The house is distinct with curved roofs reminiscent of the sea waves. The roof is clad in thin bendable photovoltaic panels supplying energy to the house. A part of the roof is left as a green roof, giving residents some outdoor leisure spaces.
