For an established neighbourhood like Bangsar, one would never imagine that there would be any more surprises left to uncover. But Design Collective Architects (DCA) has created a home that brings to mind Pierre Koenig’s gravity defying Stahl house as immortalised by architectural photographer Julian Shulman. That iconic photograph showcased a house built almost at the edge of a cliff with a spectacular view of Los Angeles beneath it—except for this house in Bangsar, it’s a view of Kuala Lumpur.

However, as the architects took pictures of the site, trying to capture its surroundings through small openings and windows, the most exciting picture was through a high level small toilet window that captured a panoramic view of the Kuala Lumpur skyline.
“It was at this moment when we first saw what the project could be and how the old existing bungalow was preventing the owners from actually experiencing the full extent of what the site could offer,”recalls Chan Mun Inn, lead architect.
