Kembar Mas House was purchased in a finished condition from the developer back in 1994. This 135 sqm house has 2 bedrooms, 1 resident’s bathroom, 1 helper’s bathroom, kitchen, and also living room. The facility is also completed with a front and back yard, as well as a carport. The house is being rented out until 2019 and because the building's physical condition is getting older, there are several leaks and damages. The house owners then decided to renovate the house.
In general, the architect always inspired by the terrace ambience, because, the terrace enables people to enjoy outdoor space while staying on the inside (outdoor indoor space).
The terrace principle as focal point is also consistent with the amount of windows and gaps that are expected to create the cross-ventilation effect in the air circulation and to make the rooms get enough light. The bedroom area has enough light but not as much as the main spaces. This creates shadow and light interplay that makes the room cosy enough to rest.
Most of Indonesian traditional houses also have terraces as part of the existing cultural influence. As for thermal comfort, the terrace enables people to enjoy the breezy air and moreover to enjoy the rain
The old teakwood materials are repurposed to become a visual starting point for the renovation process. The limitation of the materials availability requires the architect to precisely calculate the usage of the materials. Material constraints have resulted in immense detail and intentional works.
The initiative to come up with used teakwood materials and ivory walls was started from the owner’s fondness of collecting old teakwood from way before he decided to renovate the house. There are stories from the owner's dreams and hope toward his ideal home that the design is trying to respond to. The plan is to create a relevant ambience that is new but familiar and close to the owner’s heart.
