Ohtama Residence
The design intent was to remain responsible not only in budget but in context, with respecting the impact on the site and neighboring homes. The home contains a considerable amount of glazing, which was an effort to honor the surrounding views and also provide life to the neighborhood. The ceiling heights are humble, which provide intimacy while maintaining responsible energy requirements to condition. The eaves extend out and mass was created, which lends a respectful nod to passive design.
