Sarah's House Design Page 1986

Sarah’s House (1985) was my first house so I wanted to cover all aspects of design including Plumbing, Electrical and especially a sensitivity to the site itself. There had been a previous building on the site that was no longer there. My main interest design wise was to make a structure, which would represent the occupants who were a couple. The house has two main support poles (see design page) representing the two individuals. The design is also a combination of Eastern and Western culture. The kitchen area representing western civilization has tiny pane windows making tiny straw-like light, and, the larger room has Rothko-like lozenges of light from large equitable windows, open space, spare furnishings, an Eastern wall of books. If you look at the interior section drawing, you will see a figure in the kitchen and the two shapes conjoining.
