Project Description by ODOS Architects: Set in an industrial area of dublin city centre, these three mews dwellings appear from the street as a mysterious, robust and impenetrable mass. The cantilevered upper section is a composition of powder coated metal industrial flooring planks, arranged in varying widths to create a rhythm and have been periodically doubled in depth creating a moire or interference pattern. Views of foliage and tree tops coming through and over the front screen hint at what lies beyond and it is only as you pass through the metal exterior that the warm, light filled heart of the building is exposed. The interior of each dwelling is an experience of colour, light and shadow.

As described by gigaplex Architects: A cozy home to accommodate single man and weekend guests, including grandchildren, next to Provo River. Two linked corrugated metal grain silos arranged to allow the largest (27’ diameter) to have the most proximate visual and aural access to the Provo River, and the southern exposure to ensure passive solar heat gain during the winter. An electric mesh is embedded into the slabs of the lower floor as a first auxiliary heat source, and a propane-burning stove (manageable by internet) will provide the back-up. The metal grating and guard rail of the second level deck will provide shading into this great-room space during the summer months. Includes a “Bed in a Box” concept, each one complete with stereo sound and flat screen monitor.

From Parasite Architecture Studio: The project transforms an existing one floor building into a single family housing unit, that exposes within its volume the intervention and functional areas. It is an object-house inserted into a typical Romanian single family housing neighborhood, trying to constitute an alternative.

The house is a wooden box standing on a concrete basement on a slooping site facing the water. The organisastional sturcture, based on two crossing axis, creates an intricate interior space where rooms are connected to each other in various overlapping ways. The coherent interior details and furniture are specially designed and built for the project.

Located at Himeji Hyougo Japan, the Double House was built using wooden structure and galvalume steel sheet. This two-story house covers 82,84 m2 of floor area or about the half of the site area. Designed by Architect Associates Tonoma, I love the environment, the neighborhood, the mountain, and of course I love how the house responses to its surrounding.
