Architecture is situational. Better buildings have been able to extend their topographical reach, or be oriented beyond themselves. The Ur2 House involves itself in the ability, or counter-positioning of a structure, to acknowledge a specific matrix of landscape engagements, both natural and created. Ur2 allows the landscape field to impress itself upon specific architectural configurations. The Ur2 house is counter-positioned to create a specific engagement and contingency within the landscape to allow the enclosure to mediate between landscape and interior settings.
