Welcome to Hover House by Pranala Associates, with the pictures taken by Mario Wibowo. This beautiful modern house is located in Bandung, West Java, Indonesia. This beautiful house was built in 2020, and we hope you enjoy it!!
Just a step away from the entrance, visitors will be taken on a journey to enjoy the architecture of the house. Located in Bandung, Indonesia, Hover House presents architectural themes that experiment with gravity. From the beginning, the architecture of this house wanted to show that concrete which usually seems heavy can be designed in such a way that it looks light.
At the entrance of the house, there is a cogon grass garden that compliments the architecture which people can enjoy. Hover House has 3 masses which are divided based on their respective functions. If we enter the house area, there is an intersection that divides the entrance, the main living quarter, the service area, the front garden, and the back garden. So it feels there is a separation but still remains in one unit. The house itself is preceded by a semi-open foyer, framing a striking elevational view of the main building that houses the main living quarters.
The architecture is made more rustic and brutal, so it gives a different impression to visitors. The architect wanted to show that elements of brutalism can be combined with tropical architecture with a long and wide roof to control the flow of rainwater. During the design process, the architect team discussed a lot because this building uses a combination of steel structure and concrete structure.
