​

H_House is located in a quiet neighborhood in Larnaca and is built on a large plot almost the size of a building block. The satisfactory area of ​​the plot allows the development of the building, at ground floor level. The organizational structure of the ground floor residence is based on two primary zones. The first zone includes all the living areas and the second zone the sleeping areas. The separation between the two zones, is achieved by placing an internal courtyard between them. The inner courtyard is used as an empty space, a spatial pause to give the composition an additional breath. Usually in two-story houses, this separation is achieved by separating the uses on the upper and lower levels. In this case of the ground floor residence, the "H" type used as the basic organizing principle reinforces the separation of the two zones by using an interior garden between them.
