Elyes' House #1 - Tunis-Marsa (Tunisia)
Architectural project (Tripoli)
DescriptionGalleryDetails
This house concept for a young family in Tunisia integrates an office space for the client who is an urban planner.
The building is developed upon the classical model of an H-shaped courtyard house. According to the Arabic culture the entrance situation is designed to not allow direct view into the private space. A guest room is located next to the entrance. All openings are inward orientated, thus the external longitudinal walls have no windows. Just the office space at the 1st floor has a window overlooking the street.
