Habitable Polyhedron

SpaceInvading is bringing the Neat back with four architechtural wonders today.  This one is the "Habitable Polyhedron" and it has a unique function.


The project, meant for a family house back yard in the suburbs, aimed at designing a small park or opened area where the young parents and their newborn child would enjoy a independent space from day to day house activities, a space for reading, playing, etc. Having in mind this objective, and considering the usages of the space in the long term, it was proposed the project incorporated a small building to complement and support outside activities. That way he building would serve as a shelter for the child to share with his parents and, later on, as his own personal activities and hobbies setting.


It gives the appearance of one of those cartooney buildings where the space inside is bigger than it looks from outside: Link

Harkens back to the day when young women of "breeding" had nothing to occupy their minds and so resorted to mischief like this. Eventually she'd end up becoming a morphine addict or drunk conducting seances to the amusement of her female peers before dying of cirrhosis or TB. Tsk, tsk.

I liked it even though it was mean spirited. The trouble is that girl was far to clever and creative for her time. Today a girl like that would grow up to be an actress, a film maker or a writer.
