The SFhaus floorplan is designed with an open space ‘terrace house’ concept as is typical in Malaysia and Australia. The first floorplan proposed by our architect was rejected, so the second floorplan was designed to be bolder, more experimental, unorthodox, and idealistic with a KDH of 56%. This layout was created because the house was designed ‘function follows form’. This design is definitely not for everyone and we are unapologetic about it. SFhaus includes tropical features of colonial jengki houses that are very rarely found because they seem old-fashioned. The approach is tropical bioclimatic. Living, kitchen, and inner court are connected into one to the backyard dining, with an unbroken circulation flow to the 2nd floor. The main point of this house is in the 7 m high ventilated inner court which functions as a connecting point between spaces, making it easy to call each other. The challenge of an open space house is privacy. So, the architect arranged for there to be personal space zoning. In our opinion, a house that is too open is uncomfortable, just like a studio apartment that has been enlarged, there is no spatial experience. Architects arrange for privacy to be maintained from outsiders even when all windows are opened. Common challenges such as mice, insects, noise, etc. are already prevented. Of course, a house with many openings means a lot of dust. What surprises guests who come is that our house is cool and breezy during the day, and there are few mosquitoes at night. The advantages of an open space house with a bioclimatic concept are: - Energy efficient. Electricity costs around IDR 900,000 per month. - The daytime temperature from 12-2 is maintained at around 28° (during the rainy season like now it can drop 2-3°) with a relative humidity of 50-55% via a digital hygrometer. Most houses with many openings still feel stuffy, hot, comfortable with AC, and lots of mosquitoes because they do not detail the principles of bioclimatic physics. - Ergonomic layout. The house follows the habit, not the habit follows the house. - Breezy, cool, not humid in all areas - Bright but not roasting during the day - Few mosquitoes #OpenSpaceHouse #RumahTanpaSekat #RumahLega #Ruglivingroom #Karpetkotak #furniturantik #ConsoleTable #midcenturymodern

SFhaus has 4 bathrooms. The concept, material, color palette, and sanitary are not differentiated to be cohesive with the overall house that carries the colonial art deco theme, but there are still characters and colors that are highlighted in each bathroom. Master & Kid bathroom = green. Guest bathroom = dark red. ART bathroom = creamy white. The SFhaus master bathroom measures 2.4 x 2.1 m, not big and does not use a bathtub because we are not the type who linger in the bathroom. The master bathroom is designed with a his-her sink and a wall-to-wall mirror measuring 2.4 x 1.8 m. The highlighted color in the master bathroom is green, on the mosaic tiling and vanity. All of our bathrooms are designed with a tropical bioclimatic concept that optimizes energy saving, smooth air circulation, optimal lighting, passive cross ventilation (air flows even when the door is closed). This creates a bright, non-humid, and odorless bathroom without an exhaust fan. The roof is fitted with a ventilated skylight with a 40 cm high opening using steel mosquito nets to prevent insects from entering, plus bengkirai wood lattices. The walls have air vents. This concept optimizes negative pressure, stacked effect, and passive cross ventilation so that it does not require an exhaust fan. Air pollution only takes about 30 seconds to be sucked out, checked using colored smoke. All bathrooms use PVC vanities for maximum economic life. Lots of storage for cleaning tools, personal care, rags and towels. The tabletop uses the same sintered stone as the kitchen. Using a solar water heater instead of a high-power electric water heater, so that the ceiling looks clean and energy efficient. If you pay attention, we do not use glass dividers, because of experience in previous homes, it is very difficult to clean glass from water mold every weekend. The shower position has been set optimally so that it splashes too much into the toilet. #BathroomCeramics #KeramikMosaic #Wastafel #PintuKamarMandi #CatKamarMandi #WarnaKamarMandi #DindingKamarMandi #KeramikDinding #KeramikLantai #Solarwaterheater #RenovasiKamarmandi #BathroomMakeOver #InspirasiKamarMandi

Home Coffee Bar SFhaus was requested to the interior designer considering our passion for coffee, tea, and mixology. We regularly host so this area is prepared to be easy to entertain guests. We enjoy the ritual of brewing, reflected in our setup which is almost entirely manual without electricity. This area has two wings separated by a mirror and tufted rug. - The right wing is integrated with the living room cabinet is the mixing station. - The left wing is integrated with the kitchen is the display & serving station. Since the cellar is limited, we put the rest of our liquor collection in the Study Room (slide #7). We only need to turn our bodies when prepping and serving. All panels including the fluted olive can be opened for storage. Used in conjunction with the audio gear in the living, this area is a reductive interpretation of a kissaten / speakeasy / listening bar. A place where we unwind every night with coffee, cocktails, vinyl music while reading books accompanied by dim lights. #CoffeeBar #CoffeeCorner #HomeCafe #ManualEspresso #turntable

Our most favourite space, the LDK. The area covers our living room, peninsula kitchen with kissa-style dining table, and open-aired inner court. The hearth and primary communal space of this house. Inspired by the interior and furnitures from heyday of colonial art deco and mid century modern era. It is timeless and personifying our quirky & maximalist characters. The colour palette is rather lively, inspired by Frank Llyod Wright's Taliesin Palette. We spent most of our time here. We watch movies, brew coffee, listen to our music, read, cook, do sport, play console, and drink! #RumahOpenSpace #RumahTanpaSekat #BTNOAS10
