alexis dornier traces circles and tangents to shape steep hillside house in indonesia
- Type
- House

a system of circles and tangents organize space, movement, and views across the bay
as the house descends, its forms echo the curvature of the coastline below
the architecture follows the land
avoiding the impression of a single, dominant volume
the estate reads as a series of interconnected moments
a spatial experience shaped as much by walking and looking as by form
warm teak ceilings, off-white walls, and pale Palimanan stone floors establish a calm palette
allowing the geometry to register without becoming overwhelming
the materials soften the strong silhouette created by the circular plan
