However, the following functional requirements must be incorporated; Space for living & dining, master bedroom & bathroom, guest bedroom & bathroom, kitchen, and a single carport. The total area is not to exceed 1750sqft and must have a minimum of 2 levels, the choice of materials must be logical, innovative, and contemporary. Design Approach The house was a form generated through sound designed for a Music Producer and Marine Biologist. Challenging the typical residential construction by introducing and implementing Monolithic dome home construction methods. While the bedroom and wardrobe spaces extended underground the entrance level was the ground floor. The main space of the structure focuses on the recording studio placed as a midlevel. This space naturally passes the sound recorded within the room to the rest of the structure which was the main aim of the project. The structure was naturally lit by the hard landscaping water features to the spaces underground.
