Hybrid House in the U.S. by Sander Architects


Whitney Sander, principal architect and founder of the studio Sander Architects, has developed its own method for creating affordable and comfortable housing for Los Angeles. The disadvantage of all types of projects is a similarity to each other. With this technique you can get a home that reflects the individuality of the customer, while having minimum cost for the project and the construction, comparable to typical construction. The house consists of modular sections, the amount of which depends on the required volume of living space. Each section consists of a metal frame, the frame and the veneer and the roof is delivered to the site is ready for collection on the spot. The secret of the fact that types are only side and rear walls. The customer who bought the frame and shell, the main facade – a person who makes himself at home, according to their tastes and preferences. Thus, it saves on costly design details, yard facades and roof, which usually remain hidden from the eyes. For example, a customer of the house music critic and I wanted, what would the facade presented themselves derivative variation of the picturesque paintings of Georges Brakua “Aria of Bach” in 1913. Internal content, zoning at home, laying communications made by the client. Water for basic heating and washing is heated by sunlight in a special system of pipes that are installed on the roof. For additional heating is applied warm floor covered with linoleum in the private part. For the best coverage while an exception to excessive heat inside the direct rays of the sun, the main facade is faced with a matte translucent polycarbonate. When planning the customer insisted on the presence of a large open room with a balcony for musical evenings. Likewise, this space is a place of reception and kitchen and dining area.
