Malaysia's Extraordinary Terrace House Transformation｜Desa Lightwell House｜Architecture｜House Tour

Welcome to DESIGN SEED, we will be sharing the story of the occupation of two remarkable restaurant owners and entrepreneurs and how their personality would picture their dream home.
The evocation of this project would always echo in my head, a perfect combination among the designer whom extols the honest use of materials and the bold venturesome of flipping layouts out from the conventional.
And of course, tasteful clients who value the journey of architecture and design exploration.
This episode is a collaboration between Design Seed & Atelier International and we hope to boost an awareness to the design scene.

I'm a urban planner student and still loving this channel☺️ also I introduced this channel to my friend who's studying architecture and she told me this is the best channel to learn more about architecture and interior design, she also mentioned that her designs throughout the semesters is getting better so thanks a lot and keep up the good work Design Seed💯

[@edayhashim]

This is the best house to-date featured here. I’m blown away. More please.

[@designseedstudio]

Thank you Eday, we've been trying different videography techniques to improve ourselves to bring out the best for our subscribers viewer experience. Stay tuned, there will be more compelling episodes with plentiful of amazing projects yet to come!

[@ginigingin]

Beautiful house! Smart ideas to move the rooms to ground level.

[@danielvelasco6518]

Beautiful and emotive. Love this house, like you said "best house to-date featured here". Amazing

[@kingwong1088]

I was working at Taman Desa a few years back, and would often saw the owner walking his dogs. Never knew the house is so marvelously designed. Amazing!

[@ironrazor6738]

I'm absolutely BLOWN AWAY!!! I've never imagined a terrace transformation in such a unique way. Love the presentation from you all, really lifts up the uniqueness of the building ❤️

[@winstonmorella4900]

A house to live, socialize, share music yet have a pet and garden to care for. A piece of paradise. I cannot ask for more. Congrats. Am inspired.

[@tsar2522]

This house truly is a masterpiece, a well designed art which integrates the nature inside and out..this is a simple yet thorough transformation of a modern living environment fit to be called a home~

[@absoluteatomatics8821]

Just the kind of house that I would love to stay in 24/7. Love the vegetative elements in the house and the natural lights. Sacrificing the carporch for a nice indoor welcoming garden is just brilliant. Kudos. How I wish my home would be the same.

[@designseedstudio]

We hope you could adapt some inspirations from our channel in the build to realising your future home! Cheers

[@theshah9756]

One of the best malaysian houses i have ever seen. The concrete stairs are magnificent.

[@TheMidnightcool]

Flipping the layout is genius as it makes sense in our tropical climate. Hot air rises, cold air sinks. Western castles of medieval times used this to their advantage and installed rooms on the higher floors, even lifted the beds up high above the floor to make the most of the hot air. In our climate, it makes sense to put the cooler, shadier bedrooms below. More eco-friendly too! Love this house, and love your content as always :D

[@alifmukhtar5779]

U can see the owner sweating when doing chores at kitchen @9.32 ,🤣

[@alainkov4616]

I respected their work on the house when I realized the minimal artificial lighting. This shows that it was rebuilt with intention. The flavour humm the big brain, the power and the execution!!! Chef's kiss(pun intended)

[@carlyh6913]

This is my favourite home. From the indoor trees, huge skylights, different levels on the 2nd floor and the general feeling of being outside! The stairs are genius with the sun filtering through them, they look so light and airy. What a successful build, no wonder they don't want to leave home, I wouldn't either!

[@21stkenn89]

Never seen a staircase like that before...very unique design. I don't cook but i love large kitchen. Those fresh plants is a breath of fresh air plus the dog. Beautiful home 👍💕

[@designseedstudio]

Beauty isnt she. Its still nice to have a large kitchen to mingle or even use it as a replacement to a conventional dining table at times. Cheers, and thank you for watching!

[@illmtoloko]

I loved the privacy of this house, and so beautiful. Fantastic house. I am amazed with the beautiful houses of malaysia. Incrível, Obrigado.

[@fidaruzki4820]

I am seriously in awe. Thank you to the owners to share a glimpse of their abode with the rest of us.

[@nickloong]

Simple, raw and masculine design elements all round the house. The gamble and risk taking in its design paid off handsomely!

[@mikaellaperea8751]

the transformation is really breathtaking! the design is so amazing considering the space and formal style of the house. kudos to the architect and the whole team who worked on the project.

[@ifitistobeitisuptome]

Absolutely STUNNING!! Watching this channel makes me want to move to Malaysia so much! It must be lovely to have a home open to the sunlight and natural elements all year around! I'm so jealous.

[@designseedstudio]

Hello Liber, thank you for watching! It's so courteous to hear your love for our tropics, may I ask which part of the world are you from? We believe the beauty of Interior Design & Architecture is how you connect the surroundings, climate and environment to the property. Do subscribe & share! Cheers

[@ifitistobeitisuptome]

@@designseedstudio Hi Design Seed, I live in the North of England, quite close to Newcastle. I did visit Malaysia about 15 years ago as I wanted to see the Petronas Towers, which were amazing & well worth the visit. If I ever get the opportunity to go again I will definitely try to find some of the properties you feature on his channel. Thank you so much for the hard work you must put in to bring them to us. Cheers.

[@sakthiat]

One of the best projects I have come across !

[@alexong7]

Flipping the typical ground and upper floor is very interesting!!

[@putiputi8627]

The layout is mind blowing 😍

[@Cathsunify]

this is such a breathe of fresh air!

[@nocatch700]

That narrow and tall steel door really makes a statement on entry. Love it.

[@jeffriashari9211]

By far the best house to-date featured here. I’m blown away. But, im a bit sceptical having a glass at the rooftop as it may create heat due to the nature of the glass against sun itself. I would more appreciate if it can be explain in details or perhaps next video will features architect to explain on the out of norm design and their justification.

[@justingriffin2546]

Just Lovely, great production values also.

[@AbdElHmyd]

Natural lighting, free flow air, trees, no over-architecture touches! This house is a natural drug!

[@lifungchong1814]

I love it! Relax and greenery

[@manojkappen7453]
