Custom Floor-and-A-Half Home with Carport

thingiverse

This project has over 100+ hours of work in it, and I feel it shows the furthest capabilities of Tinkercad browser based software from Autodesk. Creating this was a personal challenge to make a small dream home that used as much natural light as possible while maintaining privacy. The original inspiration came from the Farnsworth House and the concepts developed by Frank Lloyd Wright's Prairie Homes series. However, I knew I could do better than these in the modern day. This said, this home can comfortably accommodate two occupants and two guests, providing all normal amenities while affording a sleek as well as warm space in which its occupants are always connected to each other. The home is a space in which occupants have the spaces in which privacy can be met while never fully isolating one occupant from any other. In this way, this home fosters relationships and closeness in a setting which conveys a meaning of hope and openness through the wide views afforded by the floor to ceiling windows in the dining room and the full balcony along the second floor on the north side. At any time, occupants may pull curtains across any of a number of windows to either create privacy or lower the light in the home. The three twin skylights are meant to illuminate the area directly under the half second floor as well as provide a beautiful view of the stars for occupants as they go to sleep at night. The use of wood and glass as well as the aforementioned stargazing abilities afforded by this home are meant to place the occupants never fully out of or into nature, allowing them to enjoy the best of both worlds up close. Ultimately, this home stands to create harmony between occupant and to extend that relationship to the rest of the world. -J Custom Section Link to the Full Color version https://www.tinkercad.com/things/hZLOE9YxB7l-floor-and-a-half-home
