Kemaris House / DRTAN LM Architect

Kemaris House is nestled in the residential suburb of Kuala Lumpur's Bangsar neighborhood. Commissioned to embody the essence of minimalism while ensuring functionality for a modern family, this Northeast-facing abode ingeniously integrates elements to address the split-level site and combat the relentless tropical sun. Drawing inspiration from the region's climatic challenges, the design harmoniously incorporates brise-soleil louvers and indigenous landscaping to temper the harsh sunlight. Honest materials, celebrated for their intrinsic colors and textures, lend the structure an authentic allure, seamlessly blending with its natural surroundings.
