HOUSE 2

Author, Site, 2009

"House 2" is interested in inventing new hierarchies; other types of relationships rather than purely narrative spaces that have a beginning and an end. I am learning to design 'situations' rather than designating one room per person and making common rooms an after thought.



Author, Plans, 2009
  1. Highly differentiated and intricately woven spaces
  2. Movement filters rather than designating "circulation" space
  3. Public+ Private are relational and contingent rather than absolute. Both can occur anywhere. Privacy is generated by withdrawing from company and Public is confronted by interaction.
  4. Privacy. Becomes a "retreat", in this case, the library and not necessarily the bedroom.
  5. Public. Family, Friend, and Stranger are addressed and movement is choreographed on every level.
  6. Walls are rendered independent rooms together with crafted openings. Indecently they become both connected and independent of each other.
