Abstract
THIS “HYBRID-HOUSE,” with a mixture of both domestic and professional programs (the BarnHouse includes residential spaces and a garage in addition to horse stables and a paddock), developed from our observations on how a boundary makes place out of space and how a frame is used to articulate form. The intent was to provide a sense of order—an integrated relationship between coexisting but discrete spatial conditions of artifice and land. High above the Illinois River valley, on a three-sided sloped hill, the BarnHouse and its open paddock are intimately linked with the pristine, adjacent forest by a wooden fence, which is the unifying element that provides scale and lateral support for the structure.
