Shade Lofts
For west facing sites, a second prototype of “The Butterfly Lofts,” was developed. To accommodate this site condition, two story screened porches are placed on the front of the lofts, rather than at the back, with Bris Soleil to shade and shield interiors from Houston’s hot western sun. Like typical front porches of the past, these porches address the street and surrounding community while extending living spaces to the outdoors. |
