Wood framing is flexible and can easily overhang the bounds of the printed concrete. https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/J1456515898561458189893713854588/PF_Web_03B.jpg Many city lots are deep but narrow. Our project uses a 36’ wide lot as a test case. https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/K1456574559133825609973014528124/PF_Web_04.jpg Wood framing allows for a crisply prismatic upper story that overhangs and highlights the gentle curves of the printed concrete. https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/C1456582932332321595623007649916/PF_Web_05.jpg A central 3D printed column is the focal point of the interior. This element houses the stair and other amenities. https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/T1456595068814182570611206848636/PF_Web_06.jpg Plans https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/Q1456601759411364616918158868604/PF_Web_07A.jpg Street Elevation https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/D1456605219024428664849726242940/PF_Web_07B.jpg Side Elevation—Entry https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/F1456607795684087624673605517436/PF_Web_07C.jpg Rear Elevation https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/E1456610648897333737551082619004/PF_Web_08.jpg Section https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/B1456618347111017322094872559740/PF_Web_09.jpg Additional Views https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/Y1456623546307387753058285977724/PF_Web_10.jpg https://subject-matter.org/about 2023-10-30T02:01:57+00:00 always 0.5 https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/Q1458042750879236710659898015868/diles_subject-matter-1.jpg Photos by Phil Arnold https://subject-matter.org/nav-—-desktop 2023-10-29T18:42:29+00:00 always 0.5 https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/Z1450184469060387182166914695292/Test_Tone2.png https://subject-matter.org/nav-—-mobile 2023-10-29T18:42:29+00:00 always 0.5 https://subject-matter.org/header---mobile 2023-10-29T19:07:50+00:00 always 0.5
