🔦 TALENT SPOTLIGHT
📐 10° of Separation House 🏡
"The house, assuming its maximum footprint as a square, is divided into two equal, 16m x 8m rectangles, each positioned perpendicularly to a point in the curved front lot line, resulting in a rotation of a 10° angle. The interstitial space between the two rectangles caused by the rotation, the "wedge" as it is termed, connects the two rectangular volumes as a grand hallway on all three floors.
A more earthy, natural, and dark color is chosen so that the buildings can blend with its rich forest, especially during winter.
In the front yard, near the main entry walkway is erected a 4' x 4' stone slab above grade, cut into a 10° right triangle in plan, which is an extension of the wedge of the building. This freestanding stone is a prelude to what lies ahead inside the house. As a totem for the house, the name of the project, 10° of Separation, is chiseled on the stone surface."
