Studio NOA's new residence entrance is a large main hall featuring a 6m high ceiling which serves as a shared common space. It contains a stairwell leading to and connected with the other rooms. This relatively large void gives the residence a sense of spatial continuity as well as openness from the slightly small individual rooms in the house. The Architect created a loft space that can serve as a future children’s room just above the entrance which is currently being used by the husband as a reading area to indulge his love of books. An underground mezzanine space leading down from the main hall serves as a bedroom with ample natural light and ventilation. Leading up from the main hall, the observer is greeted with a compact kitchen and dining area equipped with a food preparation area, storage units for tableware and crockery, dishwasher, rice cooker, microwave oven and garbage bins. Just above this kitchen-dining area, with its low ceiling due to legal height restrictions, a space for wash basin and bathroom and a skylight overhead.
