SUNKEN HOUSE
PROTOTYPE - GARDEN SUITE

The suite sits lower than the main house, and that simple move does most of the work — separating sight lines between the two homes while giving the interior unexpected height. Hanging lights and tall curtains draw the eye up. A small building that feels expansive
