Behold an exquisite example of a home that creates a landscaped sanctuary on a limited lot: the Guz Architects Meera House. On an island adjacent to Singapore, this abundant abode embraces lush living spaces thanks to the designers' treatment of each level as single-storey dwellings.
Rolling green rooftop gardens grow burgeoning grasses that expand the property's lawns from each stacked floor. Providing panoramic views of the city, the Guz Architects Meera House maintains a strong element of privacy between two dividing walls that encase a gorgeous pond and courtyard.
