An abandoned stretch of land in the Lykins Neighborhood of Northeast Kansas City has made room for six small residential lots. Adjacent to a local park, the design focuses on creating high permeability and openness within the house and its surroundings. 

 

A large central atrium space acts as a central hub that includes the kitchen and dining space, as well as balconies from the master bedroom and living room. Green screens along the East and West facades allow for light to filter and ensure privacy inside. A lofted living room and roof patio take advantages of the elevated view over the park and surrounding area.
