Sliding house
Submitted by Samyciawood on Saturday, 19 September 2009
The base of the house is fixed but has a ’second skin’ that slides to expose more sunlight to the glass section of the house or exposes the interior courtroom to the open sky.
Simple, elegant and intelligent.
Watch the movie that Wallpaper made about the house. The house was designed by London based dRMM Architecture.
View photo’s and more info at the site Inhabit. Whilst you are there look around the site, there is great content here. I liked the article about Green building 101, practicle information about how to cut down energy use in your house.
