DESCRIPTION
Apartment Tic Tac Toe
The Sicila Horizontal Residences consist of 3 dwellings developed above a shared basement podium that host the car park.
Each dwelling occupies a whole floor, which allows them to have openings to all 4 sides and a private individual entry either from the stair or directly from the lift. The result is a stacking of
individual residences that feel like houses, each with different features depending on which level they are.
The ground floor dwelling opens up to a private garden, doubling the living area and making it feel like a free standing house.
The middle floor dwelling presents a generous livingarea at the centre opening towards the east and has balconies on all 4 corners.
The upper floor dwelling is designed around a central private courtyard and also has access to a private rooftop terrace, making it feel private and secluded, yet offering uninterrupted district views.
All dwellings have a dedicated car space in a secure basement,3 bedrooms, an open plan kitchen, living and dining area and a second living area or office.
