Project 1. Part C. Application

The Newmarket cabin as an Environmental Filter

-       Open plan public area allows for breezes to penetrate throughout the entire house

-       High windows positioned either side of each other allow for heat to be removed (natural ventilation)

-       Walls positioned to block out extreme sun in areas

-       Windows and openings positioned so breezes can be maintained

-       The bifolding door system allows for natural light and wind flow in the open plan living space

-       The outdoor and semi outdoor spaces surround the enclosed private spaces providing insulation in those areas in winter (climatic filter).


 The Newmarket cabin as a Container of Activities

-       The Newmarket cabin is zoned into private and public areas to allow for specific activities

-       Each space has been designed as user specific.

-       Multiuse open plan area allows for flexible space use

-       The design incorporates areas that are a hybrid of interior and exterior space

-       The entire site available excluding offsets  is wall in structure this claiming the maximum amount of space for the client

-       The backyard has been created as the main part or focus of the house      

-         Outdoor living areas encourage outdoor activities   

  
The Newmarket House as a delightful experience

-       The permeable spaces allow a connection with the landscape

-       The aspect of the house faces the most desirable views

-       The outdoor room acts as a safe and private area

-       Wall and barriers have been positioned to create privacy

-       The second level further captures the views facing north

-       The client has his own private outdoor room upstairs which is easily accessible from the lower private area.
