Community - friendly neighbourhood
An innovative hillside Honeycomb layout, quite unlike the terrace house and linear layout found everywhere else in Johor Bahru.
Honeycomb concept
- houses are arranged around small pocket parks like friends around a table
- small cul-de-sac communities where residents can easily recognize their neighbours and mitigate "stranger danger"
- a child-friendly neighbourhood where cars have to slow down in the winding and looping roads in front of the homes
- the Quadruplex House
- the Sextuplex House- the Duplex House
Thermal comfort
Cool Outdoors
- in the middle of the courtyard are trees with large, leafy canopies that provide generous shade that cool down the outside environment.
- the generous shade also reduces the absorption of heat by hard surfaces like roads, thus reducing the ‘heat island effect’ especially found in bare urban areas.
Cool Homes
All the house in the “Idaman” series are designed to the principles of Thermal Comfort pioneered by Mohd Peter Davis to achieve:
- houses that will be thermally comfortable throughout the year with just ceiling fans
- use of air-conditioning (if preferred) is minimized to very occasional use
Houses in the “Idaman series” will have:
- heavy insulation under the roof-tiles to cut down heat absorption
- wide overhangs to shade the windows and walls
- automated night-time mechanical ventilation to cool the house at night
