As a complementary addition to another nearby building on the site, dubbed the Wedgie, The Side Car is imagined as an evolution of the original principles of the removed home. Spacecraft Architects draws from the surrounding environmental and architectural context, proposing a fitting sibling to the dramatic, bold form that sits so starkly amongst the natural. When planning for an addition, the choice to add to the previous form or build anew becomes a point of contention.

But as ever, Spacecraft Architects were up for the challenge.
