FS PRIVATE VILLA

IN JEDDAH, SINGLE HOUSING PROJECTS OFTEN EXIST IN ISOLATION, WITH MINIMAL INTERACTION BETWEEN THE SITE AND ITS SURROUNDINGS. TYPICALLY LOCATED ON GENERIC PLOTS WITH A SINGLE ACCESS POINT TO THE EXTERIOR NEIGHBORHOOD, THESE RESIDENCES PRIORITIZE PRIVACY AND INWARD-FACING SPATIAL ARRANGEMENTS.

FS PRIVATE VILLA EMBODIES THIS ARCHITECTURAL DYNAMIC WHILE REFLECTING THE MODEST LIFESTYLE OF ITS RESIDENTS. DESIGNED WITH A CLEAR SPATIAL HIERARCHY, THE VILLA BALANCES VARYING DEGREES OF PRIVACY TO ACCOMMODATE THE FAMILY'S WAY OF LIFE. TWO BRICK VOLUMES EMBRACE THE PRIVATE SPACES, ENSURING MINIMAL EXPOSURE TO THE STREET, WHILE THE CENTRAL AREA—ENCLOSED WITHIN THESE VOLUMES—HOSTS THE ENTRANCE, LIVING SPACES, AND AN INTERIOR COURTYARD. THIS COURTYARD SERVES AS A SOURCE OF NATURAL LIGHT, ENHANCING THE OPENNESS OF THE PUBLIC SPACES WITHIN.

THE VILLA’S ARCHITECTURAL EXPRESSION IS ROOTED IN MATERIAL AUTHENTICITY. BRICK, CHOSEN FOR ITS WARMTH AND SIMPLICITY, SYMBOLIZES THE CLIENT’S HUMBLE PHILOSOPHY WHILE REINFORCING THE PROJECT'S STRUCTURAL CLARITY. THIS APPROACH RESULTS IN A RESIDENCE THAT IS BOTH DISCREET AND HARMONIOUS, SEAMLESSLY INTEGRATING PRIVACY, LIGHT, AND FUNCTIONALITY.
