This limited edition of posters are each loving silkscreen printed by hand with the arduous process of 'rainbow rolling,' where two ink colors are mixed on the screen itself. As a result, each poster is pulled... https://t.co/v49yzXFpiJ

VSMP uses e-paper which means ambient light and shadows become part of the viewing experience. Next experiment: using the same technology at architectural scale. Film link: https://t.co/2sExg6FCvn #DMvsmp

We've been experimenting with e-paper. Our Very Slow Movie Player takes one year to show a film at 24 frames per hour instead of 24 frames per second. Film link: https://t.co/GxTlZoK3jx

MEDITATION 5: STACKED

Within the bedroom of the youngest member of the family, a new wall has been created by stacking millwork. A series of volumes store the child’s clothing and possessions while protecting the sleeping area as a room within a room. #DMrja

MEDITATION 4: FOLDED

Between the bedrooms of two siblings a portion of the wall was replaced with millwork folded into an S-curve in plan. This creates back to back workspaces and bookshelves for each child. Due to... https://t.co/mlFmAaXCSN

MEDITATION 3: THICKENEDThe existing interior walls of the office are thickened with a new partition of walnut and opaque glass. This thickened wall allowed us to insert new lighting that helps the room feel more... https://t.co/Fd5j0VKcDz

MEDITATION 2: DISSOLVED

At the end of the entry hallway is a new ‘flex’ space. It was created by replacing a drywall partition with highly transparent millwork that lets light deep into the center of the home. One... https://t.co/Ay2GL6kcS1

MEDITATION 1: PERFORATED
In the entry hallway we wrapped an existing wall with new wooden fins that are perforated into an oversized pegboard, allowing it to function as storage (seen below on the left). #DMrja Photos by Mark Wickens

With apologies to Robert Frost, if good fences make good neighbors, do good walls make good relatives? That’s the question we set out to explore with this family of five interventions, each a meditation on the qualities and role of walls. #DMrja Photos by Mark Wickens

The architectural language we developed pays its respects to the Missions of California, the vernacular metalwork of central coast farms, and Aalto’s use of wood that’s warm and crisp. A mixture of fir, white oak,... https://t.co/kBJMDFECYY

For a pair of empty nesters who are often visited by their kids and grandchildren, we were asked to do two things. First, to rationalize the floor plan to make it better for entertaining. Second, to “just make it... https://t.co/D67GGSJWLu
