MEDITATION COTTAGE, LOS ANGELES CA | |
The clients expressed a desire for a quiet sanctuary removed from the activity of the main house. In addition to the front porch there are two small writing studios, a domed common work room, and a small meditation chamber. The cottage forms a center in the simply landscaped garden. The cottage was designed by Christopher Andrews in 1994 so it could be built by the owners themselves. The walls are straw bale with a concrete frame. The dome is reinforced concrete without any formwork.
