Turkel. This way home.

Recognized for creating homes of classic simplicity and enduring beauty, Turkel Design is a residential architecture practice devoted to clean lines and the beauty of natural materials. We aim to help our clients build thoughtfully-conceived homes that can be constructed within their budgets. We are an approachable, personable firm and our goal is to remain that way. What we do is a way of life for us – we are passionate about design and creating good homes for real people – people with a strong appreciation for good design and sensitive building at an appropriate scale.

We are a unique design practice that redefines the relationship between architect and client. Our design process utilizes virtual meetings and visual collateral to help you define your goals for your home, wherever you are. Using simple, fixed-fee services to guide our clients through a simple interactive design process, we leverage the predictability of prefabricated building systems to control the cost, quality and timing of our buildings. Our unique systematized method assures the delivery of high-quality contemporary design to virtually any geographic area. We are currently providing system-built solutions to clients throughout the United States, Canada, Europe and the Far East. Turkel Design has been featured in Dwell, Business Week, The Wall Street Journal, Mark, and has been named by Time to the Green Design 100 – a compendium of leading sustainable design.

We believe the design process begins with a client and a client’s aspirations, and that we exist to help these dreams become a home

Axiom

Since 2005, Joel Turkel and Turkel Design have been Dwell’s lead architectural partners in creating prefabricated homes that embody Dwell’s vision of modern design.

by Turkel Design To celebrate the partnership’s tenth year, we are pleased to announce a new exclusive collaboration: Dwell Prefab.

Axiom

by Turkel Design

This group of homes, the Axiom Series, is designed utilizing a prefabricated panelized building system celebrating smart design, resource conservation, energy efficiency, and a predictable building process.

Bold Design A home should be beautiful to look at and a joy to live in. Each Axiom home reflects intuitively-designed living space and uncompromising attention to detail.

Resource Conservation A home should use minimal material and energy to create. Prefabrication vastly reduces energy consumption and construction time, and all but eliminates waste.

Energy Efficiency A home should consume very little energy. Axiom homes are designed to be exceptionally well insulated and airtight. Their reduced surface area and volume ensure lower construction and lifecycle costs.

Predictability A home should be designed and built against predictable benchmarks. Within fixed fee, and systemized design and delivery methods, Axiom homes can be modified, delivered and erected on your site with a high degree of predictability in cost, scheduling, and quality.

Next Generation Living A home is a trust in which you place your future. Axiom homes are designed and fabricated to the highest standards of tomorrow.

2,340 sf / 31’ x 62’ footprint Designed for a range of site sizes, this compact home offers a courtyard-like space off the great room on narrow sites and access to two viewing directions from both the shared spaces and master suite on larger sites with acreage.

Wrapping around the loft, the double height clerestory fills the center of the home with light, illuminating the beautiful natural material of the post-and-beam structure and delivering soaring great room spaces.

The heart of the home is the great room which extends out onto a covered outdoor terrace; fireplaces at opposite ends bookend this expansive indoor/outdoor living area.

A double height clerestory stretches the length of the great room, bringing in natural light from several directions. Exposed post and beam structure is reserved for the main level spaces, bringing the warmth of wood into this bright open home.

Axiom 3250

3,250 sf / 94’ x 57’ footprint Designed specifically for steeper sites which may be difficult for conventional floor plans, this home steps up with a hillside, providing stability to steeper slopes by working with, rather than against, the landscape. Its low profile and possible green roofs ensure it blends elegantly into almost any natural environment.

By entering the home from the end rather than the center, the organization allows for easy access along a hillside, keeping driveways and entry paths out of the views that are maximized by the linear format. The stepped mass of the building creates ample roof terraces and a private outdoor courtyard separating the master suite and a beautiful studio/office.

Our Process How to Work with Us

Option 1

Choose a standard design

Option 2 Modify a standard design

40

Choosing a standard plan is the most efficient way to live in an Axiom home.

Over several years of extensive research, we have created a full line of highly refined houses appropriate for a diverse range of clients, climates, building sites, budgets, and lifestyles. Once we have helped you to select a design that suits your site and lifestyle, you will be provided with a quote and a set of specifications for your new home. With our comprehensively designed products, you know exactly what you are getting and the associated costs. Working with us through this option offers high quality design with regulated ease.

Modifying a standard plan offers design flexibility coupled with predictability and control.

The first steps include identifying which design is the most suitable starting point and assessing the most appropriate level of service for you by selecting items from our fixed fee menu of services. The selected design will be then be modified to suit your lifestyle, site, and budget. Using proven on-line meeting techniques and 3D modeling technology, we can work with you to customize your home, wherever you are. Once your home is tailored to your individual requirements, we will work with manufacturers and local builders to prepare quotes for the project. This option enables customization while maintaining precision and predictability.

41

Our Process How It’s Made

Once the design of your new home has been completed, the latest 3D Building Information Modeling (BIM) technologies will be used to custom fabricate the building components for fast and accurate assembly, reduced construction times and to lower overall costs for the building process.

42

Our commitment to sustainability informs our design, process, and material selection to ensure: - tighter tolerances - superior thermal efficiency - enhanced air tightness and indoor air quality - minimized on-site cutting and waste - FSC certification of raw materials Roof trusses ManufacturerÂ

BIM programs generate information to:

Factory installed insulation

- improve visualization - coordinate and verify construction documents - generate detailed pricing - create precise dimensions for fabrication and assembly - engineer the structure to conform to all local and regional codes and regulations - guide computer controlled cutting machines to precut and predrill custom posts and beams

Prefabricated component packages are prepared in the optimal conditions of a climate-controlled indoor environment and include all the materials required to create a weather-tight shell: - wall panels - floor panels - roof panels - architectural grade posts and beams - windows and doors

43

Our Process How It’s Made

The ready-to assemble building components are packaged for shipping efficiency and delivered world-wide.

As soon as the foundation is ready, a uniquely experienced installation crew will provide on-site assembly services for the weather-tight shell, ensuring the highest quality workmanship and the most efficient installation schedules.

44

A library of standard details has been developed and refined to ensure that your Axiom/Dwell Prefab home is a Turkel Design inside and out. If you choose to put the final touches on your Turkel Design home by working with us on your cabinetry design, your kitchen cabinets and built-ins throughout your home can be included in the house package.

Turkel Design’s systematic approach during both design and construction results in the greatest predictability of design integrity, construction and material quality, timing, and over-all project cost.
