Site-Responsive Dwellings
Site-Responsive Dwellings
Site-responsive dwellings are homes whose forms relate closely to the conditions of their location. Hillside, cliffside, cave, stilt, floating, desert, and underground dwellings establish different connections between access, views, enclosure, and the surrounding terrain. Each building represents a particular response to a slope, rock face, water edge, or other setting, with the meeting of building and site shaping its domestic spaces.

Stone, earth and concrete meet sloping or partly enclosed sites through different wall systems and surface treatments. Rammed-earth construction can make this relationship visible in thick, layered walls, connecting the form of a dwelling with the way its material is assembled.
