" questo spazio è stato pensato per dare un’opportunità agli studenti di architettura di Trieste di trovarsi, conoscersi e scambiarsi notizie informazioni esperienze….
come tutti sappiamo bene la situazione della facoltà è piuttosto precaria: mancanza di una sede, carenza di spazi, penuria di attrezzature, precarietà dei docenti… sono tutte condizioni che minano le nostre possibilità di vivere l’esperienza universitaria in maniera piena e produttiva. "

The Frick Residence by KRDB


The program requirements were for a 1600sf one-bedroom, two-bathroom house with an office and a 700sf studio on an infill lot in Barton Heights. The previous home was moved off the site, leaving a constricted buildable area located between a Diadora Cypress at the street and a magnificent Live Oak and swimming pool to the rear.

Based on programmatic adjacencies the design is comprised of a series of 16’ structural steel bays wrapped with a metal-clad SIP cowl. Within the cowl, the home is programmatically volumized with tigerwood and glazing while the studio is defined by integral color stucco. The main entry is activated with a subtle push into a generous hallway that doubles as gallery for the client’s art collection. Ambient light in the studio and living room is provided by a series of large north facing monitors while the more private master suite is volumized in maple millwork.
