The design for a large modern day family draws upon clearly organized spatial elements that function as separators and drivers for living. The elements seen on the exterior actually have distinct living purposes and qualities that bring this design to life.
The dynamic volume of the main public space serves as a mixer for family and friends, while the parents and children each have their private living retreats for peace and contemplation. The kids are separated into the dorm wing at the rear where anything can happen, while the parents have their own double high sanctuary element complete with courtyard insulator.
