Taylor’s Mistake House

Clearly the home of an architect who cares how every part of their building looks and feels, Taylor’s Mistake House is an exercise in attention-to-detail that is so thorough it is intrinsic, with no component unresolved. Examples of this are everywhere, from the beautifully resolved structure holding up the house to the sculptural downpipes. Planning has been so thoroughly resolved inside that the house only needs a single internal door. Building placement on the hillside site is cleverly handled so the built forms create an amazingly calm courtyard, carefully landscaped to give a relaxed, modern feel.
