Withrow Park Addition
The forms of the additions are derived from contextual inputs. Starting with simple boxes, we pushed, pulled, and rotated the shapes to maximize sun exposure and views for neighboring houses, oriented windows away from neighbors, and create building masses that tilt away from the sidewalk to respect the pedestrian realm. This play on a simple box form creates drama and delight but serves a rational purpose of being respectful and efficient. The design seeks to balance contextual sensitivity with the advanced capabilities of modern design and construction techniques.
