Pre-cast parts make a house

This is one of my favourite pieces of architecture in the last ten years. It is a house made from stacked pre-cast concrete parts for bridge and overpass construction. I have included the project because several projects in the class are comprised of stacked blocks. Note how the careful placement of each part serves to define different spaces inside the house. The lap pool is ingenious.
