"Stack & Field is a small but generous extension of a 100-year-old weatherboard house on a tight inner-city block in Melbourne, Australia. It challenges a fundamental assumption of compact urban housing: that density requires consolidation."
"Located on a constrained and narrow site, the project plan dissolves layout and building form into a series of offset planes, layered rooms, and courtyards, and substitutes size for spatial richness."
Stack & Field is an extension of a 100-year-old weatherboard house in Melbourne, Australia, designed by Steffen Welsch Architects. The project occupies a narrow inner-city site and challenges the notion that density necessitates consolidation. Instead of traditional layouts, the design features offset planes, layered rooms, and courtyards, promoting spatial richness. The project aims to redefine compact urban housing by prioritizing experience and interaction within the space, rather than merely increasing square footage.
