February 6th, 2013. Hotel & Resort, Amazing Contemporary Residence in Lopez Island.
The contemporary style is one of the most difficult styles to implement on architecture works. This is due to its nature of being minimalist resembles that of modern design but also still appears intricate in exerting its aesthetic appeal. The Shadowboxx, a contemporary residence by Olson Kundig architects is among the few examples around that are able to showcase the perfect definition of being contemporary by careful arrangement and construction planning in order to achieve it.
The appeal of an architecture work could not be regarded separately from the complementing look of its surrounding environment. Such is the case for the Shadowboxx contemporary house. The selected location of the house building is quite unorthodox. Being on the Lopez Island, it is easy to tell that the house is a solitary piece of building sent on desolation on an unknown island.
The good thing of a solitary and desolated place is of course its natural look. This is what the designer of the Shadowboxx wants to take advantage from. The barren look of this desolated natural landscape whose terrain levels are craggy and full of steep hills helps in making the contemporary effect of the house even bolder. This is the perfect example of the accentuating the best effect of house design by selecting the proper surrounding landscape as complementary element.
The look of the house looks like a piece of house from feudal Japanese era. The oriental element of the contemporary house design is something so apparent on initial glance on the house. The floor of the porch is made with rough and rugged woods. This rugged feature of design is its main intricate detail that sets it as a contemporary work. The implementation of wooden flooring of the house resembles Japanese tatami. On the center of the rooftop of the house resides a big cinder. The cinder is actually connected to some mechanism of steel clockworks. Upon activation, the mechanism could make the central roof be opened to enable clearer view upon the sky.
