Modern Contemporary New Build House

This modern contemporary new build house was thoughtfully designed to sit harmoniously within a spacious plot that originally hosted a modest bungalow. The new design replaces the existing structure with a bold yet refined architectural statement, balancing aesthetics with environmental performance.

The house features clean lines, a minimalist material palette, and a strong horizontal emphasis, creating a crisp and elegant profile. Deep roof overhangs are a defining element of the design—not only do they contribute to the building’s sharp and modern appearance, but they also serve a critical environmental function. These overhangs are strategically placed to provide solar shading, preventing overheating during the summer months while allowing natural light to flood the interiors in winter.

Large glazed openings connect the indoor and outdoor spaces, making full use of the expansive plot and its natural surroundings. The layout is carefully arranged to offer privacy and functionality, with open-plan living areas oriented to maximise daylight and views.

This project was designed at the conceptual and planning stages by Nur Aisyah Khairuddin during her work experience at Bryant+Moore Architects in 2019.
