House BC is in a post-war suburb on a tight lot by Raleigh’s Hebrew Cemetery. The house is solid from the street, with only a deep entry and hint of green roof suggesting what is within.
The entry void leads to a front door in the middle of the house, by a courtyard. Every space in the house opens to the courtyard. Inside, the wonder of the site becomes clear – an unimpeded view across the cemetery to the skyline. Contrasting the heavy front, primary spaces at the rear of the house open to the lush yard and distant view.
