An existing 1960’s ranch style home in Middle Tennessee became the backdrop for a range of new ‘mini projects’. The resulting renovation and addition did not attempt to overtake or destroy the intent of the original home. On the contrary, every effort was made to uncover the latent potential within the existing structure; to help it become a more coherent version of itself. Reframing east and west facing panoramic views were central to the various stages of work. The East facing view overlooks a romantic, rolling landscape of hills and forest (complete with steeple on a distant hilltop), while the West facing view looked up at an amphitheater shaped hillside. From the house one looks down to the east and up to the west. The goal of our work was to open up the home in both directions and let the section of the hill pass through it. The resulting narrative was new to this existing home. Wood was deployed as the bonding material that tied the various views and assemblages together into a coherent whole. From moving screens, to millwork, facades, floors, walls, decks, windows and ultimately the wood trellis, wood was used to create unity and variety within the home. To achieve this, various species of wood were used based on their specific properties, characteristics and cost // The overall effect does not feel or look like a kaleidoscope of wood products but rather a minimal pallet of metal and glass elements tied together with wood.

Single Family Residence, Renovation and Addition, Malibu CA
A south facing home overlooking the Pacific Ocean is reconfigured with the addition of a new pool, terrace, arbor and landscape. A visual 'frame' for viewing the horizon, the project brings together light, shadow, water and sky in an effort to blur the distinction between wet and dry, here and there, inside and outside, above and below. In addition to the natural site, there was an ambition to create a construction that spoke to the regions architectural context. Invoking the midcentury spirit of Craig Ellwood and the unabashed bravado of John Lautner, the new construction hovers above it's hillside site as an assertive object and a quite frame. In this way we learned how to build next to the sea.

New Single Family Residence, Belle Meade TN
Eventually we settled on the concept of a glass house holding up three pointy brick houses. Natural light enters each ‘house’ from multiple openings, animating interior spaces with varying qualities of light that change through the day and across the seasons. An oblique, inclined path extends from the street, through the house, below a steel and wood arbor, towards a blue stone terrace beyond. The home is a moment along this path that burrows into the ground at one end and hovers above it at the other. Views through the home connect front to back and side to side grounding the gable and the garden into its streetscape. Inside and out, the home aims to reveal what is familiar and unique about its site, context and construction.

Marion O. and Maximilian E. Hoffman Fellowship in Architecture 2000-2001
Architectural 'follies' have played an increasingly important role in contemporary architecture. They create an opportunity to comment on architecture by sketching in built form. Follies are not architecture; they are installations with the ability to envelop us in a spatial experience. Roman ruins such as those at Villa Adriana and Ostia Antica have been the main spring of my folly. They suggest in their dynamic state, multiple possibilities for creating contemporary architecture. I am interested in the power of their fragments; bits of buildings, which orient, contain, and suggest a past and future simultaneously. The eye uses these fragments to reconstruct the buildings past while the holes, gaps and scars allude to the ruin's future, the death of it's architecture? At this stage of disappearing, the missing building becomes as important as it's remaining fragments. In Pavilion I have attempted to capture this balance.
