The Creative Twist Tigertail Residence



Here is the modern private house; Tigertail Residence has been designed by Patrick Tighe Architecture, as construction in Cambodia construction materials stated.  
One more thing, the shape of this house is both a creative twist and a result of conditions inherent within the site.

“The peculiar geometry of the two-story volume is a result of the existing building conditions, current building setback regulations, openings to the views and the need for solid walls for shear and privacy”, explained the developers.

Additional information, “The folded planes of the walls and roof are an extension of the rolling topography.

The exterior of the folded planes is sheathed in metal while the interior is lined with wood blurring the distinction between wall, ceiling and floor plane.

Three bent steel moment frames straddle the existing one-story structure and are expressed in the architecture”.
