OFFICE 313 was approached by a client that wanted to design an entertainment
room adjacent to their house. This new entertainment room would be detached
from the main house. The essence of this project lies behind the interplay of
extremes that exist within. OFFICE 313’S strategy was to design a space that
immerses its visitors in an environment that hosts an interplay of light and dark.
By linking the indoor to the outdoor, this regulates the climate as well as provides
the guests with a harmonious living space. Water features, landscaping and
operable shading devices were also added to help regulate the arid climate. The
project’s material palette consists of white-cast concrete, terrazzo, and natural
stone. The resulting look is one of unity, coherence, and luxury.
