The Cedar Park House by Peter Cohan
The Cedar Park House was designed by Peter Cohan. This house built in two floor and use a wood material. In the first floor he used a 7 1/2-foot wide doors to the terrace can be slid in either direction. The chevron-shaped living space is open to the terrace and lawn, from this area we can enjoy lake Washington views. There is two concrete walls and together they form a Y that opens to the east. The first follows the long northern boundary, cupping at the end to form an outdoor hearth. The second parallels the first, until it bends in the middle and angles to the southeast. Peter Cohan has idea to collect the water, because this house built in high erosion area, infact in slope area. The water collect from the roof to three above ground cisterns and this water can use to watering the garden, for flushing toilets and doing laundry. The method of two distinct roof shapes reflect different strategies for collecting the water. The western roof conveys rainwater far enough up site to allow it to drain naturally to the street. The eastern roof takes the form of an inverted gable that collects the water and deposits it into three above ground cisterns.
