The two-story house locates most
functions on the first floor:
the living and dining rooms, kitchen, study, and a second
bedroom. Upstairs is the master suite and a patio overlooking
the front yard and partially shielded by the umbrella. In
this area, the architects flexed their sustainable design
muscles and used a number of industrial broom heads as vertical
shading on the south face. This illustrates the creativity
that went into the house's boundaries between inside and outside,
a mixture of concrete, steel, and sliding glass panels that
create a porous edge. |
