Gheothermal House By Maryann Thompson




the architect this great house is Maryann Thompson and the clien is Marcel Breuer thompson idea's is to make one no stranger to modernist aesthetic and space.Thompson’s Geothermal House, as it came to be called, unfolds in “layers of interlocking spaces.” As one travels from the northern public side of the house to the southern, more private end, one follows the sun’s path, naturally stepping down the sloping site. Continually referencing the outside through the interior of the house, the horizontal planes jut out into the landscape.



geothermal system Make the north facing walls insular to helping capture warmth and keeps out the cold, while the south facing walls open up to let in sun and warmth. Deep overhangs also control heat loss and gain, and all rooms have cross ventilation – while letting in light on two sides. Talk about bringing the outside in.
