BORDEAUX HOUSE AND POOL [THE SUSTAINABLE HOUSE] - France 1994-8


“The man has his own room, or rather station. A lift—3X3.5 metres—that moved freely among the three houses, changing plan and performance when it locked into one of the floors or floated freely above. A single wall intersected each house, next to the elevator. It contained everything the husband might need—books, artwork, and in the cellar, wine… The movement of the elevator changed each time the architecture of the house. A machine was its heart.” - El Croquis 131/132 AMOMA Rem Koolhaas
