compact co-housing for jakarta<\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

ABC Flats stands in the dense Cilandak neighborhood of South Jakarta, Indonesia<\/strong><\/a> as a compact co-housing<\/strong><\/a> development by Isso Architects. Built on a 175 square-meter (1,884 square-foot) site, the three-story concrete<\/strong><\/a> structure encompasses a total area of 423 square meters and accommodates eleven ensuite rooms arranged across three distinct room types. A rooftop pantry and communal terrace extend the shared living concept upward, offering residents a modest yet inviting outdoor space.<\/p>\n

From the street, the Isso Architects-designed ABC Flats building distinguishes itself through an interplay of soft curves and heavy geometries. The design team<\/strong><\/a> uses cylindrical forms as repeating elements, creating a rhythm that softens the presence of raw concrete while lending a sense of movement to the facade. This subtle fluidity contrasts with the more conventional neighboring houses and establishes ABC Flats as both a visual landmark and a considered response to its tight urban plot.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Entry to the building unfolds across a wooden floor beneath a triple-height staircase. Above, a skylight introduces natural light that shifts throughout the day, casting patterns along the stairwell walls. A reflective pond at the base amplifies these effects, bringing air and water into dialogue and giving residents and visitors a tranquil moment within the dense surroundings.<\/p>\n

Inside, the layout follows three longitudinal bands — stairs, aisles, and rooms — arranged with clarity and efficiency. Mechanical and electrical systems are consolidated within a central shaft, simplifying maintenance and preserving a sense of openness. Curved interior walls and partially detached railing sections echo the fluid facade, allowing light and movement to animate the compact circulation spaces.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The interiors balance the texture of exposed concrete with clean lines, wood finishes, and a restrained color palette. These choices enhance a feeling of warmth and stability while encouraging residents to inhabit shared areas. The rooftop pantry and communal terrace continue this theme, offering a quiet gathering point above the lively streets of South Jakarta.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
