Half Moon House / DROO Architects

Description submitted by the project team. The main design objective was to make the most of the narrow size of the site. We created a unique space responding to this premise by orienting the kitchen towards the light and creating a small nook for extra storage and the owner’s library of books, spices, plants, herbs and more.

The space acts as a visual display of the pantry, in addition to providing the qualities of luminosity and lightness to the general volume.

The crescent arch around an outside barbecue area and outside bench respond in geometry creating a unified visual harmony. A series of circular skylights provide warm light and change the atmosphere of the space throughout the day.
