Cat House

Within the nostalgic enclave of Salak South, this corner terrace transforms a typical single-storey ‘taman’ house into a compact, multi-species home. Designed for three humans, 18 cats, and 2 dogs, the house is extended upward with a lightweight steel structure. A central landscaped courtyard reorients the plan, improving light and cross ventilation while organising spaces to the perimeter. Living areas connect to a screened terrace, blending indoor and outdoor use. Upstairs mirrors the layout, with a studio and dedicated feline zones. Using a restrained palette of concrete, steel, brick, aluminium, and glass, the design prioritises durability, airflow, and ease of maintenance.
