Lake|Flato Houses: Embracing the Landscape
Lake|Flato Houses showcases an extensive selection of landmark homes built since 1999, emphasizing the firm's longstanding focus on residential architecture. Reflecting an emphasis on designing in harmony with the land, the houses are grouped by the habitats in which they’re rooted—brushland, desert, hillside, mountains, city, and water. These groupings reveal how the architects work with the natural environment to create houses that merge into the landscape, blurring boundaries between inside and outside and accommodating the climate through both traditional and innovative technologies.
