“Yal Living”住宅楼无疑是一项真正的挑战。该住宅综合体位于一块狭长的地块上，大部分住宅被设计为能够享有海景，其中沿海滩平行方向的立面最为狭窄。由于当地严格的规划法规仅允许建筑高度达到三层，我们选择以水平层次关系，通过台阶式布局来安排住宅与视野。

The “ Yal Living ” building has, without a doubt, been a real challenge. This housing complex on a long and narrow plot has been designed for most homes to enjoy sea views, where the narrowest façades are those parallel to the beach.With restrictive local planning regulations that only allow building up to three floors, we chose a horizontal hierarchy with a tiered arrangement of homes and views.

传统的外部住宅单元结合内部交通空间的封闭式住宅楼模式并不可行，因为南北两侧邻地对项目形成了视觉和空间上的阻碍，外部视野也无法得到保障。经过多轮设计推敲，我们最终打破了封闭式楼体的模式，将交通流线作为与南侧邻地分隔的元素，同时也有效应对了Kuwa干旱气候带来的挑战。每套住宅的所有房间均朝向北侧布置，且以错落有致的方式排列，使起居室能够占据转角位置，最大限度地欣赏海景。

The traditional housing block model with homes on the exterior and internal circulations inside was not an option due tothe barriers posed by adjacent neighbors to the south and north, and views to the exterior were not guaranteed. Afterseveral design approaches, the closed block model was fragmented and we decided to use the circulations as aseparating element towards the neighbors on the south side, also the most exposed by Kuwa it’s arid climate. All the rooms in each home face north and are staggered so that the living rooms occupy the corners and enjoy the sea views.

项目在三层楼高范围内纳入了不同类型的住宅单元，围绕不同的公共或私密绿地布置，同时设置了如泳池、健身房等共享服务设施。地下层则用于停车和后勤服务。面朝海滩的住宅单元设有一楼花园，并可直接通向海滩。

Different residential typologies were included arranged on three levels and creating different outdoor public orprivate green spaces, around which the shared services are distributed, such as the pool or gym. The basement is usedfor parking and service facilities . Beach facing units have with direct access to the beach from their ground floor gardens.

在材料运用上，项目以曲线元素为特色，这些元素既作为开口和窗户的遮阳构件，又丰富了建筑立面。同时，外立面采用带有红褐色调的砖材，与内部空间所使用的白色陶瓷形成鲜明对比，白色内饰为所有交通空间带来了充足的光照和通透感。

The material quality of the project is characterized by the curved elements that work as shades for the openings and windows, as well as the brick in reddish tones used on the outer envelope, contrasting with the white ceramic of the interior spaces that provides luminosity to all the circulation spaces.
