tree house exterior dusk © benny chan

The house employs passive solar design and other low tech methods of climate control even as the open south elevation allows panoramic views of the Los Angeles basin. A partially concealed post and beam structure modulates the exterior and allows openings to span from floor to ceiling.

Love the hilltop perch!

added by Margaret Everton to Merging into the Outdoors

If you're considering more permanently merging with the outdoors, consider a dwelling like this "tree house" by Standard, which uses solar design, climate control, and a post-and-beam structure to allow for floor-to-ceiling openings.

added by John Hill to Ribbon Houses, Wrapped in Style

The rear of this house provides views of the Los Angeles basin via outdoor spaces on two levels. Upstairs the floor surface turns up and over to become a roof/ceiling that helps shade the balcony and interior. This ribbon travels in the other direction as well, giving the impression of a flattened question mark.

Post and beam architecture and floor to ceiling openings

added by cora to Aussenansicht (23 months ago)

Given the predilection for flat roofs in modern and contemporary architecture, most of these ribbons make right-angle turns. Projecting from the glass or other walls behind them, they may function as sun shades, but for the most part they are formal devices that stress continuity and break down traditional hierarchy. They also resemble symbols, inadvertently creating 2s, 5s, ?s, and S-shapes
