Cantilevered slab to keep the trees alive. Brilliant!

My architecture obsessed 13yo and i watched this together. She loved the no posts in the corner, the different spots everyone could be but didn't like the big master ensuite door to the net bed as bathfooms with 2 doors aren't good - everyone's a critic!! 😂😂😂 retained trees and natural light penetration a highlight for me!

[@chrisdardis4794]

Just a brilliant home. Nice to have the resources, glad they didn't waste them on right-angles and tennis courts. #junkinplease

[@Archimarathon]

Yes. Andrew likes to rock out with his #junkout

[@ethanscotney9999]

@@Archimarathon I agree with Andrew. Currently watching and rocking out, with my #junkout ahah

House tour is so much better than a article and photo spread. I've wanted to better understand this building for years

[@barrybr1]

Holy shit, that is a house! How you've co-ordinated all those architectural ideas, styles, materials just blows my mind. The pod-like 'curved square' window opening at the front is fantastic.

[@rev_dude]

I learn something with every episode

[@Archimarathon]

That’s the idea. Thanks for commenting

[@oliverlondon5246]

Love this house. Truly modern, innovative, great attention to detail and very liveable. Ah…and definitely naked next time!

[@lynnetuff1322]

I wish we had this standard of building in Canada.

[@WelcomeToSteph]

King Bill has always been one of my favourites and I'm so glad there's this video to learn more about it!

[@2brazy4ubitch]

steph, that was totally unsolicited

What a great individualised home perfect for this family and their creative pursuits. Absolutely stunning and I'm filled with green carpet envy amongst so many beautiful artworks.

[@gabybordino6024]

I love King Bill, such a great house. I´m happy you made a video of it. Amazing spaces and beautiful details. What I love most is the respect for the existing trees, at some point, they determined not only the space but the structural solutions, like the slab. Those opened corner windows are some other level of beauty ❤

[@jamzyhuh2597]

Incredible language. The mix between the clients want for curves, ‘questioned moves’ and transparency create an impressive space!

[@pompei1009]

Only just saw this video. I love this house very much, and indeed it has Chinese garden elements in it. AMA is really smart in thinking out of the box, as usual. Also, love Andrew Maynard's confidence - 'best architect in the world' lol! Well, definitely one of the best to me~!

[@mrfreeze88]

Love it, love it, love it. You are a brilliant architect. Great videos as always, thanks Kevin.

[@Archimarathon]

Thanks

[@lvchlvn]

I have been obsessed with this house ever since I first saw it. A beautiful walkthrough of such a well considered home. As always, thank you Archimaraton for opening my eyes to the possibilities!!

[@arnasagen8077]

Those birches are making me homesick!

[@seyesanmi7452]

I love it, how so much can be done with that many constraints. Your advice about taking the name out of plans during renovations, I’m definitely trying that out. However the glass railings for the kids space, I don’t know their ages but it should be fine. Beautiful.

[@urbancolab]

AMA is taking low cost materials to elegant new heights. A lot like gehry on the early years. Can’t wait to see where ama goes.

[@2brazy4ubitch]

definitely good to use up all that curved storefront glass sitting around in the bargain pile at the big box

[@old0range]

Fantastic home - again constraints pushing people to come up with brilliant solutions. Thanks for sharing!

[@khizrmahdi1206]

Amazing! Really love how much though y'all have put behind the small details in the design❤️

[@arnasagen8077]

Another great video! This addition/renovation really shows that constraint don’t need to be… ehh well constraints. You know what I mean! 😂 Love the super defined thresholds in the openings in the existing brick wall 😍

[@Anyashanti]

Fabulous house and spaces! So enjoy your videos, you crack me up #justactnormal!

[@АняФедоренко-ф4й]

Hey guys, are you planning to make a video about your working day in the office/workshop? I would be incredibly happy to see your design process Thanks for sharing such a treasure

[@Archimarathon]

Possibly.

[@aussiegirl62113]

Love your videos. Amazing creativity and not pretentious just beautiful and functional. Congratulations ❤

[@Nynke_K]

Love it! What a journey of a house. Next time I'd love to see Kiah House - the 'onsen' shower/bath made me fall in love with Austin Maynard architecture. I would prefer a topless Andrew in there ;). I'd also love to see a tour of Charles House! And I need to rewatch your RaeRae House video :).

[@optimaforever]

Impressive house! So many ideas and so creative! it's a beautiful experience. and I love the curves :D

[@daro6009]

Love it! Awsome project and execution!!! Well done guys!

[@jacquesniemann3273]

Love it! Everything's so well thought through with loads of attention to detail. Well done for not taking yourself too serious too!

[@anthonyraymundo704]

can you guys make a video on architecture thesis? starting, process, creating a framework, importance of one. . . or not

[@aoustenaloysious8324]

Brilliant work, design and explanation, Great inspiration too. Thanks a lot you both...

[@spunkyk77]

Wicked! Love it

Gorgeous House, just curious about maintenance and cleaning the glass ceiling underneath the louvers?

Йоо, я у захваті 😮

[@futurebrilliantteam8851]

Wonderful to se the evolution of AMA ... this represents both evolution and an invitation to further simplify. Too many level changes for the overall space, we need to be careful of level changes as they interrupt flow. Like rooms with lot s of doors, level changess can turn areas into corridors. A couple here felt gimmicky (laptop area). Same with overhead louvres and joins/water shedding. Wonderful use of simply materials (zinc allum + chain link fencing). Great extension of boundaries, could have been better executed with less level changes or variations in how levels change (including outside). Not sure of the law but would have been good to see external stair to rear shed 2nd level. Side pod on old house was a boil. Lots of learning here.
