The fundamental problem is that this isn't a luxury development, in either its finishes or its design. Your suggestions are all genuine improvements, but none of them would fix the developers' fundamental misunderstanding of what luxury is. Take the wine display. The builder argued on Twitter that AC can keep wines chilled in that open, sunlit living room. That shows no understanding of how wine is stored. UV light spoils wine, which is why it's kept in dark cellars. Wine needs a steady 12–14°C. That large glazed room cooled with an AC, warming up every time the power goes, will slowly cook it flat or jammy, while the dry air from the AC shrinks the corks. It's part of why wines here often taste different from the same label abroad. Beyond that, the workmanship lets it down: the tiling, caulking, millwork, stonework and door installations. The open kitchen and the location of the sink also misreads how an open kitchen actually works when you're hosting. Surprisingly, after all that, I like the architecture. The façade is well executed and would hold its own in Dubai or California. It's undone by poor space and privacy planning, atrocious finishes, and a clear misunderstanding of what luxury truly is. The real tragedy is that the builders will disagree with everything you and I have said.
Using the existing structure as a baseline, I did something that is more adapted to our climate and solves the major challenges raised about the building. -Breeze blocks to replace the glass balusters to make the building look more contextual -Wooden slats to filter harsh sunlight and provide privacy -Operable wooden fins on the last floor balcony to create visual interest, filter sunlight and provide privacy to the master bed on the last floor This is not a shade to the Architects that did the original design because I’m sure they had to work within some strict guidelines, but it’s to show everyone - private owners, developers, Architects and other AEC professionals what contemporary luxury Architecture for our clime should look like.

Finding out that blankets don’t actually make you warm changed my entire worldview. you’re the one generating the heat. the blanket is just trapping it around you. so basically, you’re doing all the work and the blanket is taking credit.
