This house was impressive with its structure and design. The architect of this house was Mike Pena who builds and designed the house which was also he owned the house. The modern tropical design was just how the owner loved it, with his some award-winning bonsai plant. His passion for landscaping and horticulture and environment rubs off with the house. He works with the contour of the land and in relation to the site where it was built.

As it is said the house was also big. wherein the property and structures were huge ans is about 800+ square metres. It’s unique elevation which was 10 meters high and steeply sloping tha’s why it was designed in a structure of a terrace like manner. The front of the house was elevated with a louver which helps block out direct sun and a bit of privacy, which is just perfect for those who are skipping the sun. Here are some pictures from URBAN ZONE.

“This wall has wood cladding using 5 types of wooden beams. The architect used wood in an undulating pattern to create softness and break the monotony of a flat wall. The wood gave softness and a touch of "organic" amidst all the glass, concrete and stone.”

before "entering" the house.

But there's actually no front door.

Everything is open.

Mr. Pena used wood veneer to line the wall.”

“And this is what you see...
a glimpse of the pool and courtyard.
There are two clusters
joined together by a bridge and deck.”<<<----

“Apparently this is the part of the house that's used the most, the deck connecting the living room and dining room. The wall in the back is made of travertine marble (which is technically a form of limestone but is popularly known as "travertine marble".) The darker stone tile is actually a waterfall. On top of that is a jacuzzi which overflows into the waterfall.”
