The featureless site on which the Bundle House proposal sits was not visually nor experientially interesting enough for designers Jason Orbe-Smith and Keyla Hernandez. A grid was mapped across the lot, and with the aid of computer rendering programs, an exotic new topography was sculpted as a dynamic place for living.
You're looking at a single family home here, is that a surprise? The dull habits of much of domestic architecture have been warped beyond recognition in this project, really challenging imagination, material, technology and aesthetics. A system of organic curves was used to encompass a cluster of interior spaces with trellis-like walls that flow into roofs that provide moments of both shelter and exposure. The Bundle House's unfamiliar fluidity blends well with its landscaped surroundings and perhaps better with the colorful lives of its inhabitants.

The Bundle House is a Formal Experiment in Manipulating a Flat Site
Trend Themes
1. Fluid Architecture - Designing structures with curvy forms to create a flowing and organic feel to the built environment.
2. Parametric Design - Using computer rendering programs to aid in the creation of dynamic and complex structures with a focus on form and functionality.
3. Trellis-like Walls - Incorporating walls with trellis-like patterns and designs that allow for moments of both shelter and exposure to the elements.
Industry Implications
1. Architecture - There is a growing demand for architects to incorporate innovative technologies and materials in creating structures that move beyond traditional norms.
2. Construction - The use of parametric design software is disrupting the construction industry by allowing for more precise and efficient construction processes.
3. Interior Design - Fluid and organic architectural forms challenge interior designers to create spaces that complement these dynamic structures in a unique and functional way.
