Futurist Architecture

Using timber slatting, brick mass, new planting, and full-length floaty curtains, some neighboring properties are hidden carefully.

This house is wrapped with a light touch instead of adding a form of a modern square to its back of the structure. There is a transition between the contemporary and heritage elements in this house.

The site of this barn is camped at the foot of Mount Owl’s Head that offers a stunning view. A generous fenestration is used to take advantage of this view. The beautiful ancestral agricultural landscape can be seen easily from the barn which also remains almost intact. The integration between the barn and its surrounding landscape is a part of important considerations for this project.

The roof extension of the house covers a part of the house terrace that facing sise on each side to create more privacy. The aesthetic and practical angles of the two roofs are also added together with the large fenestrations on both floors and the radiant heating of the concrete floor on the ground floor.

The height of this public space is designed with a light glass division that responds to the surrounding trees’ height. The skins of the towers are clad in brown or black stained, rough-sawn battens.
