Seletar Close // The Apartment House
- minimalism, functionality and pure madness. House S by Belgian architects dmvA who add:
"The concept of the central void with glass floors also bears an educational aspect. By means of the glass floors, a spacial transparency is created through which all spaces are connected. Children are brought up with the emphasis of living together as one of the main principles of education. At the same time everyone has a disposal of his or her own space."

Seletar Close // The Apartment House
- this is very close to perfection. materials, volumes, details // if only it had a view.
"Family and lifestyle patterns have changed throughout times, however sometimes it’s good to keep traditional patterns in modern lifestyles. Singaporean practice Formwerkz Architects has completed such a contemporary house in Seletar Estate, Singapore where the idea of cluster living “apartments” with open communal spaces was devised for the multi-generation families living under one roof. While paying close attention to the needs of the end user and constructing a residence from the primary state, Formwerks focused on the requests of each person on an individual basis as well as their function as a group or a whole.
