Coffou Cottage
For decades the woods and fields of Southwestern Michigan and Northwestern Indiana, with their close proximity to Lake Michigan and short travel distance from the city, have offered Chicagoans weekend reprieves from urban intensity. The owners of this cottage sought to gain a sense of privacy with their vacation property, and preferred the experience of pastoral views to the natural landscape over views to the lake waters. They were fortunate to find the land that fit their aesthetic aspirations, and subsequently desired a home that would meet their modern concept for living. The cottage was designed with a simple structural system, and was enhanced by a horizontal wood rain screen to privatize the entry sequence on the North, and a wall of... En savoir plus

Claremont House
Traditional materials of brick, concrete, limestone, steel, and zinc are used to form a non-traditional house on a typical lot on the north side of Chicago. The house further resists city conventions by uniting the front yard with the back through visual transparency, where sheets of glass more than ten feet high and fourteen feet wide terminate an open plan of sixty-three feet in length on the first floor. A three-story volume of millwork separates the floors from the vertical circulation of the stairway and contains storage and equipment, neatly separating functional performance from open space. An island of stainless steel for kitchen use and dining is the only object built within the open space of the... En savoir plus

The name comes from the large collection of art and art-objects that has grown over the years; the family (and the collection) needed a new and bigger home to properly display the many sculptures, paintings and installations, also wanted were dedicated spaces like a wine cellar, a game room with a full service bar, a hobby room, storage, a private terrace and garden, and a swimming pool.

OVERLAPPED VOLUMES
A restructuring that takes life from the roots of the building: a symbiosis between the different elements and an inspiration to the basic lines makes the project a harmonious blend of materials and shapes. First floor stands out as the bough of a tree differs from the trunk, solid and massive, represented here by the ground floor of the building, entirely covered by stone. An overlap of the volumes and interlacing of lines differ the upper part from the lower. The first is developed vertically, thanks to the precise lines and sparse openings and the second is connected to the ground with the horizontal, fragmentary lines and discontinuous material. Large windows capture the natural surroundings, blending with the vegetation and integrating... En savoir plus

Panorama - Perspectiva
Residential houses are located on a visually exposed southern slopes above the city center Luhacovice. It forms one of the first objects emerging residential enclave in this place. Location of home helps create a horizon of the surrounding landscape. For this reason, much attention was paid to a soft hilly relief was not disrupt the fitting of rough objects or significant relief changes.
The concept is based on the idea of keeping maximal of the original slope. It was achieved by distribution of homes into two materials. First is heavy, concrete, emotionally "growing up" from the slope and forming a platform for a second, largely glassed object of the upper floors.

House in Chihuahua
The House In Chihuahua is part of a golf club community in the desert like northern region of Mexico. The dwelling was designed to accommodate the special climatic circumstances of the area: in winter temperatures can fall to minus ten degrees Celsius, while in summertime temperatures can rise to above forty degrees Celsius. The differences between daytime and night time temperatures can vary by as much as twenty degrees. To balance the extreme temperature differences, we partially buried the house into the mountain slope to take advantage of the soil’s thermal mass. The colder soil around the house absorbs heat accumulated during the day, and at night the ground gives off heat to the building. The house is organized around a series of pati... En savoir plus

Apartamento Palma
The intervention in the Palma Apartment's main premise was the total restructuring of the existing space to create a new proposal for a more real, more fluid and, above all, more livable space for our clients. The apartment was based on a common typology of the 80s, where the spatial arrangement was based on partitioning the space. The original entrance opened into an entrance hall, this hall was followed by separate distribution areas, for social, intimate and service. From this central distribution space, the various domestic activities were divided separately.
The proposal involves the fusion of some of these different areas, to create a new domestic experience that is natural, more spontaneous and less formal. A large social central sp... En savoir plus
