Too often architecture is defined by the extraneous layers that blow away in the wind. What if we stripped architecture down to its skivvies? What would we have left and would it be interesting?

Simplicity has an inherent beauty.

Purity has an inherent lyricism.

The P+P Home is a lyrical and client-specific modern home in Phoenix, Arizona that embodies these ideals. Being that architecture is a multi-disciplined profession, the efficiency has to carry through all disciplines. The architecture must achieve the following:

Efficient Modern Design
Efficient Structural Design
Efficient Constructability
Energy Efficiency

The architecture must marry these four ideals with no fat or awkward details, achieving integrity and authenticity, all while solving the client's program.
