The Houses of Prickly Mountain, Part 11: Waitsfield 10, Waitsfield, VT.

Part of Conceptual Design Team w/John Connell, AIA and first two years of construction for Yestermorrow Pro Course. Finished by 2Morrow Studios. Experimental Design/Build house on the Mad River.

Yestermorrow was founded as a place for architects homeowners, architecture students, and buliders to learn different aspects of the design-build process … the house known as Waitsfield 10 … began as a conceptual design experiment based on a foundation plan of a rotated square, which became the section diagram for the house. As the house rises from its minimal footprint, it turns to travel horizontally through space and becomes metaphorically un-built as the inside volume transforms into and outdoor deck space, as solid walls turn to frames and lattice, ending in the landscape as one column supporting the end of a plywood box-beam…involving many small classes over a 16 year period (1984-2000)…it is the work of over 100 people.

Lang leve de kleinschaligheid met de Pyramid House van David Sellers! Dit bouwwerkje uit 1968, dat te vinden is op Prickly Mountain, zou het ook nu nog als nieuwbouw niet slecht doen in de architectuurbladen.

The Houses of Prickly Mountain Part 12: The Bridge House (1967)

The Bridge House, which burned in 1978, embodied the improvisational spirit of design-build as well as the lifestyle of its occupants. A weekend retreat for skiers, the interior spaces contained the twists, turns, and inclined planes one expects to find on a ski slope. The house was organised around a large gathering space that connected the distant views of the mountains through very large windows. The inhabitants of the house moved through the space vertically, using steep stairs and climbing rungs that allowed them to occupy the walls. Once high up, they settled themselves into  hidden sitting-shelves and sleeping-cubbies. The huge glass wall was made of separate pieces, some of which were placed at oblique angles; some of the walls and ceilings were sloped at steep angles. All of these components worked together to reinforce a dynamic sense of movement within the space.
