House On Pipes Weekend Getaway

PARALLAX Weekend Getaway Architecture

House On Pipes

This has been further aided by the intentional staggering of the Fly ash blocks on the facade with the resultant void and shadow naturally cooling the building. Elevating the house also ensured that the Landscape was uninterrupted and the views were unrestricted.
