Revisions to a green development and design / build project I am doing in an emerging neighborhood in West Oakland, CA. The project concept centers around the idea of folding and wrapping; the floors, roof, and walls are a series of continuous planes. By Matthew Baran

  • not sure about some of the form and if there are reasons behind this although the open area when you first fly through the entry has some nice form ;)

  • I try to have an idea that I'm exploring in my work, and in this case it was a continuous roof that connects a singular indoor / outdoor space. This is a 'reason' in itself, but the roof also offers varying degrees of shelter, shade, and privacy according to program it is related to.

  • Also, the design has evolved. Search for Oakland House Roof to see more video of the concept.

  • this house isn't the most beautiful one but if my budget is not enough, i would probably choose this type of design

  • Good. I think work that challenges conventional notions of 'beauty' is successful. Look at Rem Koolhaas (not that I would compare myself). Also, the house is designed to be affordable, so it should work for you on that level. (It is not apparent in this animation, but it is clear in the construction documents and pro-forma.)

  • i don't like the interior

  • It's a good thing you won't be living there.
