CSH16 CRAIG ELLWOOD
from Post Grad Portfolio

Beginning with in depth research on Craig Ellwoods CSH16, a basic understanding of the layout of his house was discovered. The lack of architectural drawing availability challenged the analysis of dimensions and height of the original building.
Through a series of hand drafted drawings the concept of every bay, wall, form, and function became evident. Through the evolution of this project this pristine California home became appreciated.
