Our property, a 4-minute walk from the station on a busy main road, faced a privacy challenge due to constant foot and car traffic. We realized drawn curtains would hinder enjoying the home's comfort. To merge this prime location with a comfortable living space, we meticulously designed the exterior and building layout. By subtly blocking external views, we crafted an open, private outdoor connection without needing curtains. This lets you fully embrace natural light and breeze, creating a truly relaxing home for your family.
