The House of Gables is a 3-generation house that directly addresses the memory of the family’s former house and heritage through several specific points, such as the reuse of saved family lampshades, highlighting dormer windows and gable roof forms as nostalgic callbacks. Reconstituted in a new house with clear form and lines, familiarity for the occupants is retained. Coupled with the resolution of programmatic functions, the character of the family is palpably present and the balance of all factors in execution was appreciable.
