Abueva House

Situated on a sloped lot within a gated community, Abueva House rethinks how to live in a city filled with high density buildings and even denser roads. Striking a balance between the need for privacy yet still retaining a sense of community with its surrounding landscape.

Soft landscaped steps greet the eyes to lead into the heart of the home, a double height living space that opens up into a lush patio. Effortlessly suspended, the patio is wrapped in a secondary skin, a custom-designed screen with interlocking panels that offers both shade and seclusion without compromising natural light and allowing for airflow. Serving both as an architectural element as well as acting as a protective veil lend a sense of calm to space.
