In the bustling city of Amman, Jordan, The Frame House by Paradigm GmbH redefines modern living. With its bold geometric design and thoughtful integration into the landscape, the house blends natural beauty with contemporary architecture.
A Bright and Open Atrium
The centerpiece of The Frame House is a double-height atrium that fills the home with natural light. A glazed roof illuminates the space, creating a play of light and shadow that changes throughout the day. This bright, airy atrium connects the living areas and brings a sense of openness and warmth to the home.
Connecting the Home to Its Landscape
The design makes the most of its location with large windows and metal-framed balconies that offer sweeping views of the surrounding landscape. The facade, made from triangular pieces of natural stone, interacts with the sunlight, creating shifting patterns and textures. This thoughtful approach ties the home to its environment while giving it a unique and modern look.
Warm and Inviting Interiors
Inside, the home combines warm wood panels with the cool elegance of stone and muted gray walls. These materials create a calm and welcoming atmosphere. The design ensures plenty of natural light and airflow, making the spaces feel open and comfortable. Each room flows naturally into the next, while quiet corners provide spaces for rest and reflection.
Thoughtful Design for Modern Living
The Frame House balances clean, modern lines with materials that age beautifully over time. By integrating natural elements and emphasizing light and space, Paradigm GmbH has created a home that feels grounded yet forward-thinking.
This home isn’t just about design—it’s about living well. With its connection to nature and attention to detail, The Frame House offers a space that is both functional and inspiring.
