Embracing Light and Home is a compact residential interior of approximately 43 square meters. A central core integrates storage, circulation and functions, so the plan remains open and free of fixed partitions. Daylight is used as a structuring element, moving through a double height void with a south facing opening to link the levels. Sectional design turns vertical volume into additional living space without enlarging the footprint. The ground level supports shared activities, while the upper levels provide privacy.
