tutorial response - week 8

A 'brief' Brief


'A place where all processes and systems would pass through and be connected by the landscape itself.'





Pierre House by Tom Kundig

Is this a balance between humanity and nature?  Did the design respond to the site?  Or did the site respond to the the design? 

The design was inspired by the site, however the site was altered (dynamite through the igneous rock) by the design.  The two now lay in harmony from my point of view.  However, was more sacrificed than needed to achieve such beauty?
