@@lucky889s9 millions of Malaysian including myself grew up in villages surrounded by forest and we came out just fine. Our village house was so open to the nature but at night we slept inside mosquito net. The reptiles came and go but nobody sweat about it.

This is the most amazing house ive seen so far. I am just so inlove with the whole concept and overall aesthetic. Ive watched this like countless times. Ive always been amazed how houses were built in a slope. It must be a challenge from structural and architectural perspectives. One day, i will have a house like this sitting in a slope with a calm overlooking mountain and forests at the back of the house.

Belanda House is another level of inspiration when it comes to excellent architecture. I salute to the Architect who had a brilliant idea in conserving nature while building such an extraordinary house in the middle of the forest. To the owners (husband and wife and family), cheers to all of you guys!

[@juliusantivo271]

The Architects and team behind this awesome project have the full knowledge of Malaysia's geography given the fact that the house at the centre of a forest and has open areas which are totally exposed to wet weather conditions; there's a greater chance that the area is not prone to typhoons paths; but on bright weather it really looks spectacular as been showcased.

[@holygate527]

It's the engineer actually

[@siyuwoaini]

​@@holygate527 The organization of spaces and relationships with the surroundings definitely fall under the architect's scope. Engineers mainly do calculations based on architects' proposals

The areas of the house that are open all the time (which is just the area next to the pool) probably just use outside furniture (or rather, furniture which can tolerate rain). The rest is either inside or has closing glass doors/walls or wooden louvers.

[@indigoinarritu6096]

If I had money I would definitely hire this design firm to design my house. This house is amazing! It is so close to my type of dream house. Mine would be a little more industrial with stone and wood rather than smooth white exterior. Kudos.

[@JasonEjay]

Correct

[@Ivan-xg1hx]

this outdoor living concept is very breathtaking design-wise, but iirc mosquitoes is a huge problem in tropical countries, especially near the forest environments

[@annie8230]

Yes!! They have the lights on at night in jungle. That’s a bug magnet. And bugs attract birds which poop. How do they upkeep it !!

[@13minutestomidnight]

@@annie8230 Sigh, this is kind of obvious. First, the high heights mean mosquitos won’t fly up, and both repelling vegetation and bought lights can all repel them (or kill them). But the easiest option? The house has huge spaces that are either inside or can be closed off with glass doors. Birds are a different issue, but with the height and all the natural ecosystem that they preferentially live in around, I think it should be not that common unless you do something like feed them.

[@matt6353]

This house is really awesome! The true meaning of life and space philosophy blended in a nature-friendly design is really outstanding. Thank you for the beautiful sharing.

When I think about houses like this one, I'm thinking more of the maintenance needed when exposed to different elements. I don't live in a jungle but my balcony always gets shat on by birds and occasionally bats. I guess that won't matter if you have house help or hire cleaning services.

[@arsenalunsungplays5188]

Mosquitoes?

[@marimo66666]

when it rains really heavily your stairs are going to get wet...

[@AQHackAQ]

Yeah heavy rain is pretty common in Malaysia. So all those outdoor areas of the house are definitely soaked wet whenever it rains heavily. Not sure how they even deal with that. Probably got workers dedicated to wiping and drying everything.

The areas of the house that are open all the time (which is just the area next to the pool) probably just use outside furniture (or rather, furniture which can tolerate rain). The rest is either inside or has closing glass doors/walls or wooden louvers. Everything else is basically a problem you have whenever you decide to have areas open to the environment, whether that’s an open window, a balcony or something else. If you don’t like that, then just close yourself up in a little air-conditioned box - just live in a high-rise if that’s the case. Your choice.

well my neighbourhood is exactly like this where we are surrounded by hills and jungle. suprisingly enough i never had problems with mosquitoes or just bugs in general. idk if my parents had done anything to prevent it but seriously i never had issues with bugs. so maybe this house is the same. the architect may have already done something to tackle that issue. just my opinion btw

In Malaysia, thunderstorms are short lived but fierce and almost daily preceding/following intense scorching sun. Whenever I wash my balcony, porch or even do large laundry, it takes around an hour in the midday sun to dry completely. After a while, wet floors, insects, wildlife doesn’t bother too much. It’s very refreshing with cool breeze in the forest reserves. The trick to minimise mosquitoes is to build the house on higher ground away from the dense tropical trees, at the same height of the “crown” of the trees.

Honest question here - how do you manage rain and especially mosquitos? The upper deck of the living pavillion seems to have sliding windows and the lower deck seems to be completely open.

Mosquitoes are weak flyers. They couldn't fly from the jungle floor to the upper deck. In the case they got swept up by the wind to the upper deck, the ceiling fans will make it hard for them to control their flying. Their best chances to survive at the upper decks are by hiding from the winds generated by the fan and the jungle.
