dwelling & agoraphobia





axonometric overview of structure

December 2020

The client informing the concept development is a small family who live with agoraphobia and general anxiety disorder, and seek to reclude into a private dwellling sealed from city streets, while concurrently open to an ecology independant to their abode.

The intervention propsed for this site is a home oriented to privacy in a series of structures partitioned by tunnel-like bridges, surrounded and intersecting the existing masonry walls. The building is many turns and hallways and small enclaves of seperation from the outside world. Below and surrounding the structures inside the protective walls is a garden, and above the structure is the sky seen through the skylights.
