_the program
Fit living space for four students into some combination of a 20'x20'x20' and a 10'x10'x10' cube. The building should be
expressive of and responsive to the climate in which it is sited.

_the site
Everglades, FL

_the solution
A series of horizontal and vertical planes create overhangs and fins on the south and west facades to shade the building during the hot summer months. The vertical plans, positioned parallel the the prevailing winds, act as funnels to increase and direct ventilation throughout the building as well as frame a dynamic entry sequence.
