Vertical House: Lorcan O'Herlihy Architects


On a recent trip to Los Anegeles, I was driving down Pacific Avenue and out of the corner of my eye spotted this house I'd seen months before in Dwell Magazine. I couldn't believe I'd remembered it! Designed by Lorcan O'Herlihy Architects, cut-outs in the facade serve as "windows", creating an incredibly light-filled space in a house that takes up an entire, narrow lot... between two equally tall homes.

I love the way a simple sketch can turn a 2D pattern into a 3D design...





Super cool.
