Method-ology

Such a crazy house plan configur
ation that could be labeled in many different hybrid considerations: warped "datum", broken "pinwheel". In an attempt to keep all the access on one level through ramps, there is a different experience as each threshold is crossed. The house is a pathway of experience.

Quit my day job!

Today is the first day committed to the PUZZELLO LLC practice as I attempt to move forward on the Cabin(s) in the Woods project. My client has recently purchased the site so now I'm getting "where do we go from here now Mr. Architect?" text messages! Geez! ok let's go! The project has actually been in development for several months now but it was all baby steps since last October when we started thinking conceptually about the house.

Cabin(s) in the Woods

Latest PUZZELLO LLC project is a house for a middle-aged couple sited on 2.5 acres in the Broad Ripple village in Indianapolis. A short walk to many services and neighborhoods, the site achieves a splendid balance of urban connection and rural seclusion. The site contains an existing historic small house simply clad in random ashlar limestone. The site is bounded by a paved walking trail to the west, a busy thoroughfare to the east, and a river to the north. A floodway created by a long ravine sits next to where the house is sited. Filled with mature trees, the west side of the site is a magnificent natural setting and focus from the house.

The house proposal consists of creating three disparate structures formally, each containing separate functions programatically.
