HOUSE IN THE SPRINGS
POSTED ON: 08.02.2006
The House in the Springs is located in an area that is well known to artists for its unique quality of light. The project was developed from a geometry that allowed a simple box to be stretched along its diagonal axis, resulting in a parallelogram. As a result, the house seems to pull the landscape into its interior space, making the occupants feel as though they were part of the landscape.

The structure of the house is held up by three plywood bents, allowing the owners to have great flexibility in the placement of interior walls. Different ceiling heights create the opportunity for a ramp between the guest spaces and the master bedroom.
