The "Crimson Vista Villa" presents a thoughtful approach to residential design, addressing the complexities of a challenging site through the strategic assembly of three cubic volumes. This configuration successfully balances the need for individual privacy among seven family members with communal spaces that foster togetherness. The use of exposed concrete and white plaster creates a minimalist aesthetic, allowing the architectural form to take precedence. While the design effectively meets functional requirements, further exploration into material diversity and spatial articulation could enhance the villa's experiential quality. Overall, the project demonstrates a commendable integration of form, function, and context.​
