B & W House
by sabine7 / January 4, 2008


It’s not complete yet, but this B & W house in Minneapolis by Julie Snow Architects is quite stunning. Built for Walker Art Center Design Curator Andrew Blauvelt, it has been described as a “little concrete box” with top to bottom glass at the back of the house, protected by a concrete wall and garage. The wood cladding is ipe wood, complemented by rusted steel accessories in the landscaping. All in all, this house is very zen, and we look forward to more images when it is finished.

If you like this house you'll love John Pawson's sublime archetypal 'box' house -Tetsuka House in Tokyo; its purity and the way it internalises the external landscape.

The house looks kind of gloomy. I would have loved to see what was inside though.

Snoozefest. Very 2002.

The Walker itself is quite interesting, though.
