Paul Rudolph - Walker House Architecture model scale 1/100
€349.00
The Walker house designed by Paul Rudolph (1952).
The house remains an example of both the modernist architecture movement as well as a very specific approach to sustainable design.
Using only standard, locally sourced materials, the Walker Guest House pays respect to its environmental context of southwest Florida. Large windows and screens on all four sides of the house allow air to flow throughout the dwelling, removing the need for air-conditioning whilst simultaneously providing generous views out towards the landscape.
One of the more whimsical components of the cottage are the series of ropes and pulleys, counterbalanced by large red concrete balls, that control the external window shades. These shades ensure flexibility by providing the dwelling with security, permeability and shelter from the sun. This allows the architecture to remain dynamic, adapting to the changing needs of the occupants while "gracefully" withstanding the elements.
