Sari Gardens
March 3, 2015

Spread over a 20,000m2 plot, the Sari Gardens complex stands up to its surrounding with bright white modern facades, dancing to an eloquent language of light, shadows, and nature.
A 282m long strip of narrow attached residential units creating a non-repetitive composition of positive and negative blocks of solid sheets provide privacy and front buffering gardens, thus protecting the houses from being exposed to the main street traffic.
The interior terraced spaces pull in the private life within the confines of the residential space without compromising its blooming.
Every housing unit is carefully designed to meet the strictly conformist social values of the country, incorporating the luxurious feel of grandeur into tight fit spaces, thus balancing aesthetics and function and striving to make the everyday life an enjoyable venture.
Raised 1.5m over the ground, every residence topples a unique basement that holds 2 car parking lots, separating itself even more from the street level.
The ground floor spreads over a 185m2 area, with a personal landscaped garden introducing the entrance porch that connects an elongated double-height reception hall to an open space kitchen and a family hall, altogether giving access to a private backyard.
In turn, the first floor holds its own family hall, accessing 3 bedrooms and their decked terrace.
The master bedroom resides alone on the rooftop, garnished with its own private garden, a flat deck, and an outdoor Jacuzzi.
Right behind the residential strip lays a corporate layer of office-villas, designed to attend the needs of small companies willing to integrate into a more relaxed urban fabric, a concept that is becoming more and more trending in the area. 
Juggling in between the clean aesthetics of a private housing and the urban agglomeration of small cities, Sari Gardens main challenge was to communicate the neatness of contemporary architecture into the feel of “organized chaos” that describes most eastern cities.
