About Ro54 一戸建て住宅
RO54は、ロサンゼルスの丘陵地に建つ一戸建て住宅である。中央のヴォイドを囲むように床スラブを段違いに配置したスキップフロア構成を採用している。中央を貫く架け橋状の階段が最下層まで陽光と視覚的なつながりをもたらし、各室間の物理的・心理的な距離を縮めている。外殻はデジタル設計データからCNC加工により成形され、自動車のような流線形のフォルムを描く。2階部分の16フィートに及ぶキャンチレバーがエントランスの庇を形成している。オープンな平面計画により、家具の自由な配置替えが可能となっている。

Museum-quality basement grand room. - Design Challenge
- How can we minimize the physical and psychological distances between different chambers in a residential assemblage? Most homes are constructed with rooms arranged in either horizontal or vertical layouts, which often lead to partitioning and separation due to privacy or functional requirements. Walls, doors, and other barriers typically divide these spaces.
- Research
- Our aim for tackling this stoic problem was to reduce the time (Δt) required to access other spaces in the program, physically or psychologically. We looked at the problem on a horizontal plane (xy axis), where we aimed to dissolve all unnecessary divisions. This meant direct visual connection from one space to most other spaces in the house, which shortened the time of accessing information in other parts of the house, therefore reducing its psychological distances.
- Inspiration
- The design vocabulary was informed by streamline automotive aesthetics, proposing every technology in the house to have exponent performance discreetly, allowing the architectural space to deliver a sensory performance.
- Project Duration

1254 Roberto Ln, Bel Air, CA 90077, USA - Operation Flow
- The project itself provided for an inclusive engagement with its surrounding space by means of large open spaces and utilization of the ideals of transparency for honest integration into its surrounding community. There is little to hide and what belongs to the house belongs to the neighborhood and conversely, what belongs to the neighborhood is brought into the house. The architecture in turn demands a change of attitude from its occupants towards the community, to be open and to be known.
