2023 Single-family home in Lake Park, Iowa

Phase: Schematic Design Phase and part of Design Development Phase 
Position: Sole Architect

​

The project is made in compliance with the US building codes and standards. For Iowa's cold winters with lots of precipitation, the house has a spacious entrance vestibule where hosts and guests can leave their winter clothes and mud-stained shoes. The main room of the house, which contains the kitchen, dining room and living room, has a ceiling height of 14 feet (about 4.3 meters). One of its walls is completely glass, overlooking the lakeshore and the previously existing swimming pool on the plot, left unaltered. From the main room there is access through the glass wall directly to the swimming pool.  The courtyard garden and pool have dedicated storage closets with access from the exterior so as not to clutter the garage. The master bedroom has its own en-suite bathroom with a toilet in an separate room. The house is not cramped and there is plenty of space everywhere.
