Leckie Studio: Full House envisions a new way of living which benefits multiple generations and inspires progressive community values. The design concept was developed in response to the specific urban conditions of Vancouver, but the qualities of the house are globally applicable. By amplifying flexibility of program, fluid circulation, and plentiful access to green space and natural light, Full House proposes a framework for a life centered upon health, play, and relationships.
Conceived as a five-bedroom home with a one-bedroom laneway house, the program follows the logic of a traditional family residence. However, the main floor pivot door – inspired by Marcel Duchamp’s Door: 11, Rue Larrey (1927) – allows for a highly unusual degree of flexibility. In the context of Full House, Duchamp’s conceptual artwork is reinterpreted as a functional architectural element: the pivoting steel plate partition can occupy three possible positions, modulating the adjacent spaces to generate different combinations of public and private domestic spaces. Depending upon the placement of the partitions, the program transitions between a large five-bedroom home or two discreet dwelling units (comprising either a three-bedroom suite and a two-bedroom suite, or a four-bedroom suite and a one-bedroom suite). These alternating configurations might serve any number of scenarios, whether elderly parents living with their children and grandchildren, a young couple seeking to lease separate suites, or a co-living environment for a group of friends.
