The Edgeland Residence | Architect: Bercy Chen Studio
Designed by Bercy Chen Studio, Edgeland House was commissioned by a science fiction writer “enthralled with 21st century human habitation in the urban frontiers of abandoned industrial zones”.
Edgeland House is located on a rehabilitated brownfield site and it’s a modern re‐interpretation of one of the oldest housing typologies in North America, the Native American Pit House. The Pit House, typically sunken, takes advantage of the earth’s mass to maintain thermal comfort throughout the year. Like this timeless dwelling, the Edgeland House’s insulative green roof and 7‐foot excavation into the ground, keeps it cool in the summer and warm in the winter. The mechanical system combines: hydronic heating and a green roof for maximum energy efficiency.
“Both visually and functionally, Edgeland House touches on architecture as site‐specific installation art and as an extension of the landscape. The program is broken up into two separate pavilions, living and sleeping quarters, and requires direct contact with the outside elements to pass from one to the other.”
