Little Italy House
Omaha, NE, USA
2017 – 2018
This house on the hills of Little Italy takes the form of unadorned boxes, with an open courtyard at the back and roof terraces to the front. Straightforwardly contemporary, the architecture is nonetheless an urban presence on the site with a range of hues applied to the different programmed volumes.
Strategically set, the windows meet at the corners flooding the interior with day light mixed with sensational panoramic views across the seasonal shifting landscape. A striking sky-lit atrium and stairwell defines the foyer, leading to an expansive open living interior with a social kitchen to the west and a two storey tower den to the east.
