Loblolly house, Maryland, United States |
|
Located on a barrier island off the coast of Maryland, Loblolly House seeks to fuse the natural elements of the site to architectural form. Timber foundations minimize the house's footprint and provide savannah-like views of the trees and the bay, and the staggered boards of the east facade evoke the solids and voids of the forest.
This project proposes a new, more efficient method of building through the use of building information modeling (BIM) and integrated component assemblies. The thousands of parts that make up a house were collapsed into a small number of offsite fabricated cartridges and blocks and simply attached to an industrial aluminum frame on site in less than six weeks. |
