HOME / project / Kangaroo house

Kangaroo house

This project was made possible in collaboration with Axel Enthoven. The overall idea behind the architecture is to build a transparent structure, resting on four pillars. The visible ‘walls’ are actually storage cabinets with a see-through window at the top to keep the transparency throughout the house. The basic idea of this kangaroo house was to keep it clear, transparent and light.
