For this residence, natural light and continued spatial flow was vital for its narrow urban location. Allowing natural light to penetrate the interior of the residence while providing privacy was essential.
The solution was to create open, fluid interior spaces with openings on the southern side for direct daylight. The lightness of the interior spaces is countered by the exterior’s material palette of cast-in-place concrete and vertical ebony zinc panels. In some instances, the exterior finishes find their way to the interior, blurring the lines between the two.
The residences roof consists of a private office overlooking a fully landscaped green roof environment. Added to this are large solar panels located on the upper roof, slightly out of sight from the street to keep in scale with the neighborhood. These important elements are part of a list of features that gave this residence a Silver Certification from LEED For Homes.
