Designed by John Wardle, this residential structure uses timber an an effective manner.
The facade is made up of timber slats that create a sense of privacy and limit views into the house. They also manipulate light and create interesting internal spaces.
The house frames views in an effective way and this along with the use of timber are elements that can be explored in project 3. The house also incorporates a courtyard space in an attempt to optimise its location and climatic factors.
The challenge is to capture southern views, while still maintaining the required northern orientation and the courtyard space helps to do this.
This is also an element of the design that can be further explored in project 3, as the same problem is present.
Images of the house are shown below.
This image shows the northern elevation of the house and the courtyard space that has been integrated into it.
The Elevation drawing of the northern facade is provocative and clearly represents the material qualities of the facade. Drawings and renders such as this would be ideal for project 3.
