* Residential Architecture: Daeyang Gallery and House by Steven Holl Architects

Residential Architecture: Daeyang Gallery and House by Steven Holl Architects: “.. the copper-clad building has two pavilions that rise up above the water to provide an entrance and an event space for the private gallery, while a third is the home of the owner..The architects claim that the building’s proportions follow the patterns of a musical score by Hungarian-Canadian composer Istvan Anhalt, which they say can be best observed in the arrangement of 55 skylights on the roofs of the three blocks..More skylights are scattered across the base of the pool, so daylight must pass through the water before entering the gallery..”  Home and gallery..astounding, impressive realisation..numerous images by the excellent architectural photographer Iwan Baan..
