Contextual Fit
Objective:
The Smith Family has commissioned you to design an addition to their house on the shore of Long Island Sound. The original house, designed in 1965 by architect Richard Meier, has been widely published and is internationally known. Unfortunately, the Owners needs have change since the original design, thereby warranting this architectural intervention. The Owner specifically request that the integrity of the original design be respected, yet the new addition should have its own presence.
This is a project that focuses on the fit of three dimensional massing and ordering systems as the design generator in the context of existing forms and three dimensional systems. Extruded existing systems is a design starting point.
