VILLA MELATI HOUSE
Villa Melati House is a commissioned residential project in Villa Melati Mas Serpong, Tangerang Selatan, developed in 2018 with approximately 400 m² of floor area. The existing corner-house site faces north and east and is planned for a car-enthusiast family with two children, a maid and a warehouse-garage for social and hobby activities.
The existing site is reorganised around the client’s lifestyle and the relationship between the house, garage and garden. The program requires a strong connection between family life, car-related activities and spaces for entertaining friends.
The proposal divides the site into two main zones to use the morning sun. Semi-public functions such as garage, dining and kitchen occupy the first floor, while bedrooms and living areas are placed above; a ramp becomes the main vertical connector and creates a continuous spatial experience.
The first floor uses predominantly wood to balance the workshop atmosphere, while the second floor uses a concrete character with terrazzo flooring. Expanded metal mesh forms a secondary screen for daylight and weather protection, reinforcing the industrial character of the house.
