| Modern House VA in Peru by David Mutal Architects Posted: 20 Mar 2013 05:07 PM PDT
The House VA ( Casa VA ) was designed by David Mutal Architects, built in 620 m2 site area in Lima Peru. This house conceived as an alternate route that contact with the garden and the inner experience of space, this sequence is organized along an axis “bone” of movement and light that leads to the various rooms in the house. These spaces of different proportions in different ways relate to the outside with a view wider or closed, with more or less light depending on what happens inside. There are two space that articulate the experience, first is the living space that cantilever approaches an existing tree. This volume of wood and iron entry is closed for framing the garden view from the entrance and is rediscovered by his other hand from the floor. It is a space at an intermediate level and is approaching the tree frames the view to later become a screening room to darken and download a screen above. The other element is the light bridge, a cut that allows entry of light from top to bottom, this bridge glass corridor moving the children to go to their rooms and this united movement to transparency and the light becomes part architecture. – David Mutal Architects

| Modern Munro House in Brisbane by Base Architecture Posted: 20 Mar 2013 05:08 AM PDT
The Munro House located in St. Lucia – Brisbane QLD Australia, designed by Brisbane based architecture firm Base Architecture. The proportions of this house have been dictated by the restraints of the site. A flood level two meters above natural ground and the 405m2 area of the site meant that this home had to be developed across three levels. Living occurs on the mid level and opens to both a rear deck and central courtyard deck to provide a connection to the outdoors where close proximity to the landscaped yard was not possible. Opening up each of the floors with voids created a transparency unexpected in a building of three levels and ensured that a reference for scale was maintained. The transparency was further extended by the ability to glaze the entire front facade due to the privacy provided by the extra height from the street. This not only presents the home with extensive natural light but exploits the park view across the street and maintains surveillance to the surrounding neighbourhood. Materials were selected to ensure generally low maintenance with unpainted block work and metal sheet cladding making up the majority of the exterior. Where maintainable materials are used these soften the overall feel and texture of the house and provide context to the general nature of the surrounding architecture.- Base Architecture
