Built on Taylors’ Island, Kieran Timberlake‘s Loblolly House is nestled into a grove of loblolly pines and responds in an “environmentally ethical” way to its surroundings. Lifted on skewed wooden pillars in order to rest lightly on the site, the residence seems to float amidst the trees and aims to put the focus on the natural environment, such as the sun, the trees and the Chesapeake Bay. The video shares some of the thought process, assembly and construction process as well as the finished project. We find the project extremely thoughtful and hope you enjoy the video!
I saw a picture of that house in a website, in a small banner, I thought, what a nice house! It was a beautiful picture, unfortunately I couldn’t find any info about it.
Great video, liked the prefab idea and the connection between the wood pillars and the aluminum. Inspiring three house.
ps. would be nice to see some plans and details
most enlightening architectural video i’ve seen in a while.
I am just wondering the folding sun-shader is their own idea or just a copy of what they saw from one of the renderings of OMA. Or they both are using the industry’s invention?

@Who is the first?:
Why does it matter? Also, a bi-fold panel is by no means revolutionary.
Great project.
