Therefore is a series of surveys relying on photographic studies to explore the built realities that shape our environment. This volume explores Terrarium House by architect John Ellway.
Each volume captures a single project through images and edited conversation-photographs that don’t just document, and dialogues that don’t just affirm. Paired together, they reveal the thinking behind the design, making it available for reflection.
Cloaked House rebuilds a 1960s frame within a black timber skin, its concrete blocks salvaged from a hospital. A carved void opens it to the canopy and street, while keeping the old structure saved around twenty tonnes of carbon.
