| About | City of Shadow The home of shadow expands into a city, its orthogonal grid shaping an urban landscape of volumes, voids, and cast shadows. Equal and democratic, it rejects gated blocks, embracing radical openness. Between Light and Dark Guiding visitors through penumbra into shadow, the home blurs private and public. A central pool mirrors the sky, while concrete walls absorb sound, enhancing the play of light and shadow. More than a dwelling, it fosters introspection. Visitors navigate narrow steps and corridors, experiencing shadow from all angles. The grid extends into the home, where thick walls conceal serving rooms, freeing space for essential living. Suspended in penumbra, it balances openness and intimacy. |
