Zaha Hadid Architects Unveils Nassim Villas Designs For Singapore

The well known firm Zaha Hadid Architects just managed to release a new outstanding project, some luxurious garden-filled homes called Nassim Villas. These modern structures are tied together into the landscape through a series of terraces and ramps.
The designers built an innovative cantilever by extending the topography into the sky while reducing sun exposure at the western façade and doubling as a rooftop terrace.
The new buildings have a curvy and glossy design, and seems to blend perfectly into the greenery that surrounds them. The meandering paths and ramps that connect the spaces dip down to a garage at the lowest level and then up to a peaceful pool and finally to the homes themselves.
The interiors have the same fluid lines that the exteriors do, and have sloped floor to ceiling windows for daylight. Just like the curvy levels outside, some rooms within the home dip down to create nooks for other rooms. Fiber-reinforced plastic and Corian are some of the materials being considered for the interior elements and glazing.
