The house as a platform has been used to investigate two issues central to design today: the family as a social unit and the environment. It sets about to create its own terrain, a veritable oasis, within its inscribed territory. This residence multitasks as a house for three generations of a family and their many visitors, a busy workspace, and on occasion a cultural hub. The house can be identified by overlapping spatial categories split into three levels: the private domain of the nuclear family (bedrooms and breakfast room), the shared inter-generational spaces such as the family room, kitchen and dining areas, and the fluid public domain of the lobby and living spaces.
