Archimorphic

Archimorphic receives Planning Approval for 11,500 square foot residence in the hills of Pasadena. The design implements linear forms that shift, rotate, and stack in response to the natural topography and alignment toward views. Looking forward to starting construction! http://www.archimorphic.com/projects/hillside-residence/

Ningbo Yinzhou Civic Center construction is moving along quickly. The project broke ground in early January of this year. The formwork for the subterranean garage has been placed and poured. Soon the basement will be excavated as the construction continues down to the second subterranean floor of the garage. Stay tuned for more updates soon.

This single-family residence is located in an up-scale, hillside neighborhood in Pasadena, California. Situated high in the hills, the 11,500 square foot residence aims to capture the panoramic views in order to elevate the high-end living experience. Within the landscape, linear forms shift, rotate, and stack in response to the natural topography and alignment toward views. Opaque walls on the west elevation alleviate privacy concerns, while the transparency of the east elevation erases the boundary between the interior and exterior. To further frame the views and spaces without confining them, the design incorporates a formal wrapping technique, reminiscent of the mid-century modern architecture style.
