The J.Lalli Valley Villa, nestled in the mountains of J.Lalli, is a testament to gad's commitment to creating unique living experiences. The design, inspired by the mountainous terrain, ensures each of the 130 households enjoys optimal sunshine and views. The buildings are carefully layered to adapt to the mountainous landscape, creating a collective housing experience that is both commercially viable and environmentally friendly.
What sets this project apart is its unique approach to preserving the environment. gad employed a fabricated steel structure in the form of stilts, minimizing the impact on the natural terrain. This innovative design choice not only protects the mountain but also serves as a model for future local construction.
The villa's design also takes into account the challenges of mountain living. gad has incorporated wheelchair elevators for barrier-free accessibility and designed pavilions to provide shelter during adverse weather conditions. The houses are strategically positioned to make full use of the terrain's height difference, ensuring each house enjoys a wide view of the beautiful Mogan Mountain scenery.
gad's meticulous planning and innovative design strategies are evident in the J.Lalli Valley Villa. The team conducted extensive research on modern villa design methods and mountain building techniques, resulting in a design that maximizes environmental resources while preserving the natural landscape. The use of large surface width, grey space utilization, and large areas of floor-to-ceiling glass are just a few of the strategies employed to achieve this.
The J.Lalli Valley Villa project, which began in 2017 and was completed in 2020, faced several challenges. Key among them was how to integrate architecture with nature while causing minimal damage to the ecological environment. gad's innovative solutions to these challenges have resulted in a residential project that is not only aesthetically pleasing but also environmentally friendly.
The J.Lalli Valley Villa is a testament to gad's commitment to innovative, sustainable design. This project has been recognized with the prestigious Golden A' Construction and Real Estate Projects Design Award in 2021, a testament to its outstanding design and significant impact on the world of architecture.
