Residence
St. Louis, Missouri
This new house in the Ladue suburb of St. Louis, was designed for entertaining, to showcase the owner's collection of art, and to respond to the site conditions. The sloping site is split diagonally by a dry stream drainage structure that results in the neighboring house on one side being shifted towards the street and the other pushed to the back of the site. The solution involved a compact form to reduce construction costs and includes a large freestanding wall connected to the house with a private deck that screens the back yard.
