Aboriginal House
​
Where: near Cluny, AB
When: March 2016
This design project was another unique opportunity to test our creativity. The program asked for a home built specifically for a First Nations family, where my group chose the Siksika Nation. The home was designed for a family of between 4-6 residents and had to tie in very closely to an aspect of Siksika culture, of which we focused on the connection between the land and home. The home is flanked by gardens on either side highlighting a pathway directly through the center of the house. Lots of glazing on the south side allowing sunlight to deeply penetrate the home, once again welcoming the outside world inside.
