Architects Bohlin Cywinski Jackson and SheltonMindel & Associates have collaborated to design this Aspen residence. The Independence Pass Residence is sited at the edge of a nature preserve in Aspen, Colorado with views of an alpine meadow, forests of evergreen and aspen trees, the Roaring Fork river and the Rocky Mountains.
Located within a private oceanfront community established in the 19th century, this Hamptons house is for a young couple looking for a home that would accommodate their growing family and reflect their modern lifestyle.
The Hahei house also has the ability to transform with the use of sliding screens which open and close for the changing weather as well as manipulating the spaces for privacy or openness.
The existing house was a three bedroom Californian bungalow with a lean-to at the rear in which the owners lived for a few years before the renovation. The brief was to make the living spaces more suitable for a young family by resolving the awkward layout and providing a better connection to the outside.
This catalan house is inspired by the old farm buildings that they used to appear outskirts the historical cities centre. The idea starts from the colocation of a principal volume that would include the public spaces of the house and the other smaller volumes contain the private ones.
On a steep lot in the hills just west of Cupertino the house will span from grade into the canopy of oak trees. The single level living area is entered from the sod roof/carport above.
Moshav Kidron, built of large agricultural estates, is a level flat ground Moshav in which the sizes of the estates create quite great distances between residences. Olive vineyards are the main component of the estate on which this family house was planned and built.
The RoadRunner Residence aims to inject new life into a classic design. The flat-roofed single story house completed in 2014 looks as if it is floating, nestled comfortably within the trees of the Texas hill country.
