Harvest House

Harvest House is a two-part, private residence designed to accommodate two distinct client profiles. The design features two main buildings, each with a unique layout that alternates the middle floor between the clients. A series of glass staircase wells span the central courtyard, seamlessly connecting each floor. The building's split gabled roof plays a key role in the rainwater collection system, channeling water off the sides and through the rooftop terraced gardens, eventually guiding it to an underground tank. This system is integrated into the overall drainage strategy, which begins in the greenhouse and flows through the terraced gardens. The project was modeled in Rhino 8, with section and plan drawings created in Adobe Illustrator. The site plan was rendered in Photoshop, and the perspective render was initially created in Vizcom before being refined in Photoshop. The physical model was built using chipboard and acrylic, with laser-cut pieces for the glass staircase and greenhouse.
