What with just finishing and filing away the house plan T file i thought it would be a perfect time to upload part of it onto wordpress. There’s been so much detail to include into the site plan layout. 5 months later its naturally found its form.
House plan T moved on from a working prototype models like the: flat pack low energy house plan O and house plan I and managed to get off the drawing board and into construction.
The last design making it to reality was the low energy house project in Germany which gave us the great opportunity to play and experiment with a complete landscaped project. This time we continued with our theme of breaking the barriers from the outside to in, Integrating playful flowing organic shapes from the outdoors into the houses interior foot print.
