Architectural Consultant: Ar. Faisal Ahmed

The Crafted Cube, a stunning single-family residence in Gulshan, reimagines the cubic form to create a harmonious blend of art and functionality. Designed with sustainable living in mind, the residence features carved voids that transform into gardens, atriums, and courtyards.

Situated on a 6250-square-foot plot facing west, the home emphasizes comfort and eco-friendly design. Water features, vertical gardens, and courtyards mitigate sunlight while creating a cooler microclimate. These elements seamlessly integrate with the building’s cubic structure, ensuring a balanced, sustainable living environment.

The internal layout, organized in a grid pattern, maintains visual clarity and promotes natural light and ventilation. Ground floor water features connect formal spaces with nature, while upper levels incorporate open courtyards and outdoor amenities, including a west-facing swimming pool.

The Crafted Cube exemplifies earthcrafted design, celebrating sustainability and architectural excellence.
