NOTES:
> A number of details in the home's architecture suggested a work
that would accomplish three things:
--1) Provide a focal point to a residence in need of defining
details.
--2) Mirror the distinctive radiused corners of the residence.
--3) Enable Charles to finally enact a design that has pestered him
for far too long; an overhead structure with glass or plexiglas lites
that enjoys southern exposure. The exposure is everything, in
that here we are available to the arc of the sun's path for a
number of hours every day. As the sunlight strikes the glass,
the light is thrown onto not just the surface below, but diffused through
the glass entry door and onto the wood floors of the foyer with a coloring
that is established by the color of the awning lites. |
