Y House, South Lebanon, by BAD: Built by Associative Data

Y House, designed by BAD: Built by Associative Data, is located in a suburban village in South Lebanon. The site presents a natural asset of greenery and inspiring smooth topography overlooking amazing 360 ° views. The house spreads its three volumes, blending with the beautiful surroundings.

All parts of the house revolve around a central hall, which serves as an entrance to the project. One arm containing the living areas cantilevers over the road, highlighting the entrance zone. The remaining arms sit firmly on the ground. One contains sleeping areas respecting the privacy of its residents, and exposes them to the private garden/forest. The other contains recreational areas, a pool, and sports facilities.

Y House - South Lebanon, BAD
Plan

The three volumes offer a panoramic view of the surroundings and frame it differently, accentuating the beauty of the site. The Corten steel skin allows the house to blend with the natural entourage, naturally landscaped by local trees and rocks. This natural mix is complemented by a water pond, adding a mystic effect to the serenity of the project.
