Unique Exterior Harmonizing with Nature. From the first glance, the house captures attention with the strong, modern look of its black container blocks. The industrial steel is softened by vertical wood paneling on the facade, creating a perfect balance between the rugged architectural lines and a warm, cozy feel.
The most notable feature is the spacious rooftop terrace furnished with an outdoor dining set, lounge chairs, and a BBQ area. It’s an ideal place for hosting parties, stargazing, or simply enjoying the fresh air of the surroundings.
The black metal railings and the matching dark-colored concrete/metal exterior staircase enhance the crisp, modern aesthetic. Large glass doors on the front and side not only bring in maximum natural light but also establish a seamless visual connection between the indoor living space and the natural landscape outside.
Smart Floor Plan and Interior Layout. The floor plan reveals an extremely rational arrangement across a long, narrow footprint, maximizing the space of the combined containers. The home features: two bedrooms, one bathroom, and an open-concept living area integrating the living room, kitchen, and dining space.
Stepping inside, you immediately sense the airy and contemporary feel. Warm, natural wood (or wood-look) flooring runs throughout the common area, contrasting subtly with the gray/dark tones of the shelving and cabinetry.
The living room is an open space, anchored by a white-grey L-shaped sofa, offering absolute comfort. Opposite is the entertainment area, featuring a minimalist wood-paneled wall and TV shelf. Notably, the room dedicates a small corner to a personal work/gaming setup, with an impressive gaming chair and computer desk neatly integrated into the dark-gray built-in shelving, showcasing flexibility for multi-functional space arrangement. A prominent burnt-orange lounge chair adds a warm pop of color to the entire area.
The kitchen is designed in a modern, minimalist style with dark gray base cabinets and lighter white/beige upper cabinets. It's fully equipped with modern appliances like a refrigerator, induction cooktop, range hood, and oven. The linear layout (I-shape) optimizes both storage and preparation space. The dining area is located right next to the sofa, featuring a compact, modern dining set, where the family can dine and converse, maintaining connection within the open layout.
The house has two separate bedrooms. Both rooms follow a minimalist style, utilizing warm wood and grey-beige tones to create a peaceful and cozy atmosphere. One bedroom features a wooden platform bed with integrated storage drawers and a dedicated study/work space by the window. The second bedroom has a similar design, maximizing function with a wall-spanning system of wardrobes and a study/work desk, ensuring privacy and personal convenience. Both rooms have large windows that welcome light and the outdoor view.
The compact yet functional bathroom is finished with warm, beige-brown subway tiles, featuring a modern standing shower and a vessel sink on a wall-mounted wooden vanity, maintaining a clean and rustic-modern aesthetic.
