A Parallel Architecture

The grand courtyard at our Industria Ranch project is surrounded by building on all sides, providing a controlled landscape distinct from the surrounding native flora and fauna. This tranquil garden features a Solarium in the form of a glass truncated cone, which houses an even more controlled interior greenhouse to support the nurturing of fruits and vegetables otherwise not suited for the Texas hill country climate. This "nested doll" approach to layered control pervades the project, also informing the hierarchy of public and private spaces in the home.
