TableTop explores the concept of contextual contradiction. By allowing both the existing 1960's suburban ranch typology and the new addition to live free of stylistic constraints, the project enjoys true contextual harmony.
A simple strategy of shoring up the existing frame allowed for a new structure to be built upon it. This TableTop is the foundation for the addition allowing it to be free of existing restraints. Two simple forms were designed to house the programmatic needs of the client and exploit the site. These forms were oriented on the TableTop to allow for maximum views of the property, passive solar strategies and to allow for exterior spaces to be occupied.
