Wave Hill Residence
This small-scale domestic project was designed as a dwelling for an artist-in-residence at Wave Hill, a public botanical garden and museum. The home was focused on providing a concentrated live/work environment where the artist could interact with the park around them while still retaining a sense of creative privacy. Fallen leaves taken from the site in early Autumn inspired the initial formal studies. Exploring the natural process of plant decay and disintegration, and the patterns that it creates, directly informed the spatial connections between programs and the skin system employed throughout the home.
