This project explores how vegetation can create degrees of privacy in a house for two families. Rather than relying on rigid divisions between the two households, the project instead proposes a twisting plan and walls of varying opacity to separate functions. The careful manipulation of sight lines and transparency generates necessary privacy.
The project responds to the separation between nature and living space in Le Corbusier's Domino and Five Points. The Five Points propose a structure delicately raised above the earth but topped with a roof garden. Rather than nature above and nature below, this project images nature woven throughout the building, as an alternative boundary between living functions.
