Nashville, Tennessee
Designed: 2006
Unbuilt
This house was designed for Dream
Inc. as a spec home. It was to be sited on an oversized sloping
lot with direct views of downtown Nashville. The design
is for three floors of inverted trusses forming a ceiling
that slopes up towards the sky. This feature creates
soaring interior spaces and helps funnel in natural light
through upper transom windows. This allows for the occupants
to control privacy yet still enjoy the sunlight.
The lower level is designed for a large patio and pool
with an elevator that travels to all three floors. The
middle level contains a large entertaining area with open
living, dining and kitchen. All of the bedrooms are located
on the top level along with a large media room for family
entertainment. Both middle and upper levels feature a wrap-around
deck with an exterior fireplace.
