An architecture for the city dweller who has lost touch with nature.
Trapped in a harsh, busy urban environment, longing for a stress-free escape.
Breaking out of the lonely cell that is my house by tearing off the upper floors, filling them with green and sunny roofscapes.
A home with humble private spaces downstairs, but large collective natural living areas.
An urban oasis where one can truly be free and escape the grip of their suit and tie.

The urban oasis is a critical intervention of the existing -isolating- buildings.
The design proposes to re-organise the home layout. By moving the living areas to the valuable upper floors, moving and reducing the private areas to the lower floors.
Ripping off the existing roofs and upper facades, exposing the collective roofscape to nature.
