Courtyard Villa
The project returns to the logic of the Arab house: a quiet white face to the neighbourhood, and a life that turns inward around a shaded courtyard of water and shade. Light enters from above and moves across the white walls through the day.

The rooms form a continuous ring around the court: majlis and dining to the front wing, family living and bedrooms deeper in. Every space looks onto the courtyard through shaded openings, removing any need for large windows to the street.
The court itself is designed as an outdoor room: pale stone paving, a shallow water basin, and a single tree that gives shade and marks the passing seasons.
