With the use of and with the multiplicity of s-motions, proposed structure tempts to create a specific way of moving and perceiving space. Its sinuosity has tendency to seduce subtly. Proposed structure is not defined by fixed points in space as fixed points are not important here. Although, the construct is not pointless, but what maters here is a different kind of point, more like control point of a spline and the motion path created by such structure.
S-motion is characterized by inflection that could be sensed in writing or shaping of letter “S” and that is the […]

These are all variations of a small mountain house we are working on at the moment. Design iterations are based on the manipulation of several simple parameters: buildings height, planarity of the roof planes and their inclination. The constants are: building’s footprint measuring 7x7m, sloping terrain and main entrance position is below the deck. Pls, choose one option by using the poll on the right hand side.
