Each house is elevated on stilts, reducing the need for extensive land excavation and preserving the natural landscape. The design incorporates modern aesthetics with local materials, emphasizing sustainable practices and a connection to nature. The houses are strategically positioned to maximize sunlight, cross-ventilation, and privacy. The design reflects an organic integration into the landscape, with lush greenery surrounding the entire area.

The elevated structure not only allows for unobstructed views but also accommodates the natural slope of the land. This approach reduces ground disturbance and blends the design with the surrounding flora.
