This modern contemporary haouse is designed by Brian Bell and David Yocum of the Atlanta, Georgia based BLDGS Architects. This project is located in an historic downtown neighbourhood. Exactly, this project is an addition to an old house which is built in 1910. The old house had a site with a mature tree canopy and direct views to the immediate city skyline. The addition is replacing the old house with a new glass-lined living space including a garage, kitchen, family room, library, and a new stair linking three levels. The structure of the house is sheltered with an occupiable roof deck surrounded by glass guardrails and clerestories.
The interior of the home applied a seried of split levels, with a stair as the central. The cantilevered structures are applied to the stair and the uppermost rooms. The outdoor walls finished with glass curtain-wall as cladding material. It provides a permeable boundary between the house and its immediate context, provides for light and views, and materially engages the glass skyscrapers visible on the immediate horizon. This combination—offset and cantilevered interior spaces viewable through a transparent exterior cladding—proposes a residential experience which is both spatially and visually suspended within the very close context.
