17,780 sf The Boundary
Nestled between the village green, wetland preserve, and Old Moreland Road, The Boundary condenses the needs of several buildings into one. This consolidation of program was driven by the desire to touch the land lightly, preserving the natural environment and connecting people to the out of doors.
The classical-inspired cross-axial plan organizes the building and adjacent outdoor spaces into four components with each wing of the building serving a distinct purpose. Views of the marsh were paramount and dictated the location of the restaurant wing and pool terraces.
Lowcountry architecture is a clear derivation of American colonial architecture, evolved over the past three centuries to address this unique southern region and microclimate.
Inspired by the Lowcountry architectural aesthetic, the roof forms maintain a simple, classical aesthetic that are reflective of the spaces within. The buildings directly respond to the subtropical climate with one- room wide buildings elevated above the flood plane to capture breezes and views. Expansive porches with deep overhangs provide shelter from the sun and inclement weather. Exposed rafter tails, vertically proportioned windows, cypress wood board on board vertical siding, plank railings and tabby walls give the building a unique and individual character, expressive of craft with materials faithful to the region.
Interiors were designed with a fresh contemporary aesthetic - exposed wood timbers, penny-gap plank siding, vaulted ceilings with open trusses and reclaimed wide plank hard wood floors to instill a sense of withstanding time, while expressing the simplicity and quality found in more contemporary lifestyles and living.

The exteriors of the Boundary are muted and thought of as a canvas, a background to the natural beauty surrounding the project. Within the restrained palette of materials we explored several siding patterns that subtlety enrich the project at an intimate scale. MATERIAL PATTERN
