Architecture Design of 3-Edge Residence

Description About The Project

3-Edge Residence designed by FAR + DANG, is a bold, yet subtle, low-lying single-story residence which respects the scale of the immediate context. Also, the sloped roof corresponds to the existing roof lines of the neighbors. The architectural strategy involved creating an L-shaped house with two wings, one for the living space and one for the bedroom spaces. The joint at which the two wings meet became the entry and foyer. Besides, the triangular intervention completed with a wood fence that, together with the L-shaped configuration, composes an interior courtyard fitting a swimming pool and outdoor living space.

While the exterior form is clean and taut, and the white plastered interior walls and concrete floors are minimal and controlled, the enclosed courtyard provides a dynamic contrast to the built form. In addition to this, the outdoor spaces – which extend from the living space through a 4-panel, 16-foot sliding glass set laced with stone pavers, vegetation of various scales, and a water element. All of which give texture and provide the organic, ever. Changing setting for the distinct form that is the house itself. The play of contrast between the house and the ‘garden’ thus elevated.

Using minimal superfluous gestures – outside the slight angles which act to accommodate setbacks and define edges between indoor and outdoor space. The house translates into an abstract project that is part architecture part sculpture, sitting quietly within its surroundings.

Text by the Architects: The brief is for a 2,300 square foot residence within an unusual triangular lot, located in an urban Dallas neighborhood. The site of this 3-Edge Residence is formed by two streets converging. And is further shaped by the setbacks, resulting in a triangular buildable area.
