The Cubes
The Cubes are located in the center of old Jackson’s residential neighborhood. The concept of creating two structures, vertical in nature, was to provide privacy and elevated views of the mountain. Atop each Cube residence, a lush roof garden blends with nearby mountain views. In addition to greatly adding to the usable space of these compact units, the privacy of the elevated spaces lend themselves to summer sleeping and social gatherings.
Inside, flexibility allows these small spaces to be multifunctional. Sliding screens change spatial configurations to accommodate multiple uses. Industrial off the shelf materials make the spaces durable and provide a simple utilitarian character. Outside, oxidized sheet metal cladding blends into the landscape and colorful doors give identity to the residences.
