Oak Ridge House

The open room is pushed toward a condition of exposure with an open curtain wall to the east and a large band of shaded windows to the west. The south wall/facade is a continuation of the exterior wall of the long south building that penetrates the living/dining room. With the drapery open and the right light, the public view pushes through the house and into the private yard. The public/living space is a vessel of light. At night and from the inside, a view of the room is projected out into the trees.
