Generation House
Brooklyn NY
An intergenerational coinvestment to foster a model for intergenerational living; for an elderly couple, designer / architect, and a family. Surgical and minimal interventions bring functionality to three dwellings while carefully respecting and restoring historical details. Taking cues from 2001 Space Odyssey, Donald Judd, and the Lion Witch and the Wardrobe, various color blocks can be repositioned and reconfigured. Material contrasts between filagreed plaster and steel, reclaimed douglas fir and reconstituted foam, are meant to elevate each other.
Steelwork: 618 Design
General Contractor: Preservation Works
Landscape Consultant: Nishiel Patel Design

The bar typology of the building integrates a panoramic ociean view, giving a little breathing room to a 400sf footprint. Materials include sustainable cork flors and local monkeypod wood details
