Malaysia's Extraordinary Terrace House Transformation｜Sleepers House｜Architecture｜House Tour

- Welcome to DESIGN SEED!
There are more and more homes being built each day, more and more renovations and constructions are being carried out to uplift the quality of living that suit today’s modern lifestyle.
But are there more trees being planted? What happens to all these old furniture’s that are being discarded from these renovating homes?
In today's episode, we will be featuring a terrace house transformation that revolves around the principles and practice of recycling and giving a rebirth purpose to materials that could be restored and reuse.
The Sleepers House is choreographed around plenty of recycled wood which was gathered along the way by owner and designer, Richard Tan.
The architecture is subtle, nothing too extravagant or loud that diminishes the neighborhood. Basic grids and lines that compliments the arrays of sleeper woods.
The story of the Sleepers House needs no introduction, the empowering impact of its presence, floods the entire interior making it the focal identity to this architecture.
The practice of the designers from One Earth has inspired me to join this movement in creating an awareness of upcycling.
So fellow viewers, home owners, designers and architects, let us practice by designing with a heart for a better tomorrow.

The aesthetics of this house is on another level. The pond and recyclable woods are definitely my favourite point of this house.
The application of the sleepers is extraordinary. Kudos for the owner for bring back to life this old gem that could can be appreciated every step and way.
The Balau log is a masterpiece in its full glory and purpose. And I like the raw exposed red bricks in the toilet, gives it a natural raw and unfinished look that tells you that we don't always need to fully cover up all the wall elements.
Wow having rain fall inside the house is next level. No need for 10 hours rain mood video playing on the background. Corious how the whole thing works during a thunder strom.
The terrace house transformations on this channel are just insane. Good job guys keep it up! Wish there were more frequent uploads
I love all these terrace houses transformation stories. Because majority of Malaysian houses are terraces, it is good to see the possibilities.
The house designs keep getting better and better with each video. We have indeed architects and designers that make houses from the heart and suits our tropical climate. And with very good tastes. Bravo to the owner/designer.
So far this is one of the best house I've ever seen here in UA-cam. Such an amazing architectural and interior design.
this house has so much character, and every single element/design has a story to tell
It's amazing experience since I joined your journey here. Would suggest to share some house plans with people. You'll be amazed to people reaction. Give free advise to people help them design.
I can just sit by the water for hours. The entire house gives me peace. Thanks for featuring this beautiful home.🥰
More amazing at the rainfall in the house! 😍
best so far
This house is aesthetically very pleasing --- clearly one of the most beautiful modern + recycled wood houses I have seen. Though, I can't help but wonder how well the open roof cope with monsoon, heavy storm or just rain during rainy season in general. And with all those metal elements in the house near the open roof, rust will be everywhere after some years, won't it? I hope the open roof comes equipped with mosquito net otherwise the tenants will surely catch Dengue fever. Lol
Omg! really thanks for this clip. So awesome! The designer is great. And Design seed presented this house in the perfect sequence.
Your channel is so inspring to me. I had great time watching your episodes. Thanks a lot & keep making such amazing quality journey.
I really love how every part of the house convey a story ❤
This channel is one of the latest find and I'm actually impressed by your videos. Informative and enjoyable
It's a wonderful house, both aesthetically and ecologically.
I have often wondered in a tropical climate like Malaysia, how would a thunderstorm affect the open air-well concept? Will it allow the residents to walk sheltered from the heavy rain floor to floor, or would it be expected to get a little wet along the way? Or would the air-well itself be in such a unique situation due to it's positioning that it is away from blistering wind in a thunderstorm, that rain just falls straight?
Would love to hear the insights from the architect or Design Seed. Thanks!!
I would love to know also. I've lived in S.E. Asia and can't imagine a hole in the roof during the wet season. Is there a sliding roof to close it up during a heavy storm? And what about mosquitoes? I absolutely love the design and applaud the reuse of old timber 👏👏👏 ... but that open airwell has me wanting to know more.
@@designunlimited6215 I lived in two houses with courtyard when I was young. This was a common design in the seventies. The area surrounding the courtyard will be wet from the rain. There is no sliding roof to cover it up. Both courtyard were used as a washing area (for handwashing clothes etc) and situated between hall and kitchen. I used to sit on the staircase beside the courtyard and watched the rain (not possible during strong wind + rain). The kitchen floor were cement and my mum would mop it dry after the rain. There were no protection against mosquitoes. I heard Pontianak's wailing from the trees outside the courtyard once.
Recently, I viewed a few houses with courtyard and there are windows surrounding it; there was one house with a retractable sunroof. I'd opt for a sky window to let in the light.
Much as I love the seamless outdoor/indoor concept, I'd opt for a well ventilated house with insect screen to keep the inside insects free.
I'm wondering the same thing, especially given that the staircase is located in that open area and is the only access to the other floors
I live in the Klang Valley in which we get rain almost daily, most days are heavy rain fall. Even when it rains and windy, I can keep my windows slightly open from my 22nd floor condominium and the rain falls straight down, and I do not have any awning over the windows. So I believe this design will work and it is the closest to what my ideal home would be.
@@zuritazahri There's significant difference between just leaving your windows slightly open during a storm, and having fwhole sections of the house that are fully open air though, especially if one of these is the only access you have to the top floor...
always amazed and inspired by your featured houses! hope to have one somedayyyyyy. Love lots from the Philippines 🥰🥰🥰
Simply amazing! Loving every aspect of this house 🥰
Lovely home it is. Kudos to the architect and design seed for designing and covering this home. I would really appreciate if design seed can have more videos featuring interviews with architects on terrace house renovations because i would love to know their perspective on having a rooftop swimming pool build on the third floor of a double storey terrace house renovation. Tq design seed fro bringing more great content especially on terrace house reno across the country!
I'm always in awe to your video presentation.. Malaysian house design is truly amazing and astonishing..💞 I LOVE IT!
love the center courtyard space that bring life io the interior that further enhance with recycling railway slippers.. natural & brilliant !!!
What an inspiring space! Well done! Kudos to the Design Seed team for the well thought of video!
Wow, this is an amazing transformation.
Beautiful. Love to see more of minimalism and earth friendly products. Stunning.
It is always a joy watching your videos and learn from the best. Thanks as always.
Feels like your are in the countryside with all the recycles wood on your feet yet modern design all around, bringing both feelings together harmoniously.
Awesome design, love the incorporation of sustainable materials into the whole design concept.
Absolutely stunning. Incorporating recycled materials into modern design is ultra rare, and it the entire concept blends exceptionally well. May not be a choice for everyone but definitely a yes from me.
Kudos to the owners!! Richard Tan himself. 👍👍 More home owners, designers, architects, should adopt this. In today's world of shortage in natural materials, it's so essential for us to look into upcycling.
Love the vintage car by the way.
A house fit for the soul...amazing
The best house I have seen so faaar! Simple and sustainablee
So so so Beautiful❤️ really inspiring
Wow! Brilliant use of recycle wood throughout the house.
It’s amazing design. Nicely managed spaces
Another amazing terrace house transformation.
This is a masterpiece of architecture and interior design. An eco- friendly contemporary home at its best
Because of the uniqueness of the designer collection wood it is truly the most unique designs and it's hard for anyone to copy truly beautiful ❤️ I just love the centre pond
Really stunning piece of living art.
A very unique design !
Love the way they brought in lots of natural elements into the house making it looks ‘soothing and calm’… the blending of different materials used in this house is ‘just nice’ and well balanced.
Designer had such magnificent vision. He saw every aspect of where and when light would hit each area. Absolutely amazing. I love the mix of old wood and concrete. Not my style of house but I appreciate the architectural mastery of each and every inch. One part I would enjoy very much would be to lie on the indoor bridge feeling and hearing the raindrops. Wonderful, thank you.
Beautiful house with great ideas and beautiful interior 👍
Amazing design! Also compliments for the camerawork, calm and clear. Thanks!
This is the absolute best channel discussing home designs
This house is by far the most humble in terms of materials used but yet very charming.
This is fantastic work. Great work Richard
Truly inspiring
it's a wonderful house i have ever seen. Absolutely Beautiful of Open Concept and used materials.
transformation is unbelievable...Fantastic work and thumbs up to the team..
This house is making the heart so warm and comfortable
So great design. Very unique… the recycling implementation is encouraging. Fantastic.🎉😊
Upcycled, energy-wise, very livable and absolutely beautiful!
Love…love this house!
Brilliant! One of a kind!
It doesn't quite industrial and masculine, I love it. And those wood planks make the house looks better and beautiful. That makes me want to collect railway woods
I love this house!!!
He is the Black on Black house owner as well wow!
Wow I love this design..
I can feel the calmness. Being fresh. Hope one day i can have this kind of house. I respect that Chinese cosmology 'wu xing' in this house.
Epic. I’ve been looking around a lot for people using large beams in this way. I’ve spent a lot of time considering costs. The half cut on the sleepers looks so good. I don’t know if I could find a mill near me willing to take on the job.
so inspiring me. as an architecture student I learned that this project tell us how to develop recycled materials in many parts of the house. The middle section (pond, void, skylight, and tree) is the core of this house. I can feel the comfort just looking from owner's interaction or just passing that area.
Mind blowing!!!!
Exceptional place.
Almost a sacred space....
This look pretty sick and nice!
Well done, Richard. Very tasteful.
superb design, really hope my next house can design by you.
So beautiful!
This is absolutely beautiful.
I absolutely love this place, I love Malaysia and if I ever end up there I would want a house like this :)
Lol nice profile pic - I genuinely was confused as to why there was a comment of mine here when I'm just watching the video now 😅
like the kitchen and the use of the sleepers as art decor. So far amongst the designs with an open air well for terrace house this stood out as one of my favs.
Some questions:
a) Apart from the sleepers what other recycled materials were used?
b) Besides energy conservation with the x ventilation, does the house practice any sustainable acts ie. rain water harvesting?
c) Lastly my fav question is the management of mozzies..
you are a genius Alex!!!!!
Amazing place very pieceful,this house they have a historisch, living art of architecture thz
Beautiful. 💜
Wowwwwwww..... I love the designnnnn.... I can own one of that someday😍😍😍
What an amazing design!
this is definitely part of what i want
LOOK AT THE COURTYARD!!
Beautiful ❤
Love it ! Love it ! Love it ！！！
I like the stairs a lot
- amazing house! and they found a perfect occupier
- beautiful use of sleepers and wood from the bridge but prefer to use term repurposed wood than recycled, because the preservation of original state rather than being processed for other use
- will the ground floor get really wet during heavy downpour with the open-to-air airwell?
- black sanitary fittings should have been better match with the house
- the acrylic inset at the window slit likely an afterthought but well it doesn't look that bad
- would think a slim metal display shelf works better than the current glass one
amazing house
Its like black on black and lourve combined! 🥰
The itself fits my personality perfectly. Gotta be a great inspiration for my future house.
Not ordinary wood... Speechless
LOVE IT 💗💗💗
Cute dog. Of course, the house is lovely.
The koi pond in the middle of the home is 🐟 💯
Nice house
SICK!
U guys r awesome. Using recycled stuff😊
I can’t describe how adorable the dog is 🤩
Liked it.
很有工匠精神，每當看到土豪屋主把天井封起來，我就搖頭。
Great job!! I would love to know how long does it takes for the house renovation💜
That 8 meter log, repurposed from the old bridge is rich in history. Contemplate for a moment all that used it (and its twin). Simultaneously, this old timber lives up to the century old modernist ideal of spacial planes, unifying outside & inside. Seamless. Sturdy. Useful. The plan reveals Richard Tan's more sustainable approach to design and redesign sacrifices nothing in user comfort.
Wow 。 very impressive . Same like move a flat inside house .
Extraordinary...
