Signapore architecture agency A D Lab are the creators behind a stunning home in the city that was dubbed the 'Garden House on Rienzi.'
The goal for the designers at A D Lab was to ensure that the home was as open as possible -- integrating the interior and exterior into one. The firm achieved this by incorporating expansive windows throughout and letting the natural sunlight be more exposed with the use of an all-white interior.
Foliage covers many rooms in the home, with greenery dangling from walls and railings and many plant pots filling the space. Much the same is done to the roof and balconies, A D Lab choosing to coat surfaces with layers of grass and use trees to decorate and provide more privacy for its inhabitants.
