FS: What is the main principle, idea and inspiration behind your design?
TS: This house is designed to cater the activity of family and guests, such as playing instruments, recitals and rehearsals.The building carries the continuity and harmony of strains of musical tones as its design concept. The facade consists of 2 types of element, solid and semi-transparent, just like how music has vocal weight. Solid facade illustrates heavy tones such as tenor, baritone or bass; semi-transparent facade illustrates high singing tones like soprano. The “solid element” is represented with materials like concrete, while the “semi-transparent element” is represented with glass and concrete grill to create the not-so-transparent effect.
FS: What has been your main focus in designing this work? Especially what did you want to achieve?
TS: The final shape of the building is a translation of one basic form into a seamless form that promotes continuity and connectivity from first floor to second floor level. The building mass at the back is created higher than the front to recite the flow of music tones, similar to how the music goes from low tone to high tone.
FS: Why did you design this particular concept? Was this design commissioned or did you decide to pursuit an inspiration?
TS: I think this particular design concept reflects to the owner profession and hobby/activity.
FS: How did you come up with the name for this design? What does it mean?
TS: Music House was named as the building carries the continuity and harmony of strains of musical tones as its design concept.
FS: Which design tools did you use when you were working on this project?
TS: AutoCAD
FS: Who did you collaborate with for this design? Did you work with people with technical / specialized skills?
TS: Tan Sie siong as the Contractor
