Pine Residence
Het project omvat een aanzienlijke uitbreiding van een bestaande woning in 'King Cottage'-stijl, die op elegante wijze wordt aangepast aan de behoeften van de familie.
Vloeiendheid van binnenruimtes naar buiten
De eigenaren wilden hun huis vergroten en tegelijkertijd het gebruik van de buitenruimte het hele jaar door maximaliseren. Het project, zoals het is ontworpen, creëert een naadloze en natuurlijke overgang tussen het interieur en het exterieur. Om dit te bereiken hebben de architecten in eerste instantie een zichtbare houten structuur gemaakt die zich uitstrekt naar een overdekte buitenruimte. De belangrijkste leefruimte is royaal uitgebreid, waardoor je zelfs op regenachtige dagen van de achtertuin kunt genieten. De houten str... Meer

Fold House conceals an impressive structural system while revealing spectacular spaces

Chicago home flips conventional arrangements upside down
On a traditional Chicago lot that borders an alleyway, this house flips known conventional arrangements upside down by locating bedroom and private uses on the ground level, and communal/living spaces upstairs. The architect, Kwong Von Glinow, explains the inversion is a response to contemporary desires for optimal amounts of natural light and visual contact with one’s surrounding environment.

Vista Residence
Tucked into a steep site in West Austin, the Vista Residence is organized around a three-story, sculptural steel staircase that acts as the hinge point for the residence, with rooms and hallways unfolding from it on every floor.
Paul Finkel | Piston Design
Assembled from 5/8” thick plate steel with white oak treads, the staircase took eight months to fabricate, assemble, and paint. During construction, a large opening was left in the roof structure so that the shop-fabricated sections could be lowered into place. The pieces were then bolted and welded together on site, and integrated into the main steel structure of the house. The stair is made up of over 200 individual pieces of steel joined by over 160 concealed bolts in addit... Meer

Maison Gauthier
Context and setting
La Maison Gauthier is located in the Laurentians, in Quebec, near the town of Mont-Tremblant. It is set in a hilly terrain and is surrounded by a dense expanse of forest characteristic of this mountainous region.
The lot is located on a rocky hill covered with spruce and birch. It is bounded to the east by the main road and to the west by the owners’ horse farm. The clients wanted a volume with views largely oriented towards the horses’ riding arena below. At the same time, they wanted to take advantage of the intimacy created by the topography of the lot.
The forested berm between the road and house creates a visual filter, allowing a sequential progression towards the building. The volume i... Meer
