Filter House
London, UK, 2010—2011
The project is for a new build gallery, studio and home for a graphic designer and a theatre designer. The proposal acts as a filter of its context, but also its varying programme. The layers of programme overlap and contract as required to provide public, semi public and private spaces. The terracotta façade louvres function not only to provide privacy and security, but also function to mitigate the hard urban environment and create a comfortable condition inside, like having a forest around the building.
