This residence was separated into two masses. One of which expresses the “Life” of the house. Here the owner entertains, cooks, and welcomes guests. The other represents the “Intimate” side of the home. Here the owner rests, exercises and works. Connecting these two elements is a glass enclosure. In this space the staircase seems to float above a gently flowing stream below.
MWH desired a combination of closed offices and open cubicle space but wanted to avoid a traditional office feel. Their goal was to have clean lines and a contemporary aesthetic, encourage collaboration, and to showcase their branding. Our goals were to provide a fresh, unique design and a distinct experience for staff and visitors. Our client was working within a modest budget and footprint, so we were challenged to do a lot with a little.
