Located in Kuwait City, Studio Toggle builds a multi-family home that looks "simple and serene." The structure is built for two brothers and their families and this can be considered an extension of the concept of generational living.
The interior of the multi-family home is largely contemporary and chic. Studio Toggle described the architectural setting of the structure to be an "introverted composition." As a result, there are two separate living units and an internal courtyard. As a result, the multi-family home layout boasts many "open spaces for socialization," as well as privacy-focused areas for each family.
Climate control is another focus for Studio Toggle as they arrange the home to withstand dust storms and the desert sun.
