an actual Quonset hut? This project in South Carolina — a house and office for the architects — incorporates an existing World War II surplus hut instead of tearing it down. The sides of the structure, which contains the living and dining and kitchen spaces, are opened up with windows, so the impression of the Quonset hut is reduced, aided no doubt by the choice to paint the corrugated metal red.
