PLANTER HOUSE: Living Beneath a Garden

Date

Prize
AA Unbuilt Award Special Mention 2025
To live beneath a garden. Planter House imagines a home where a planted canopy provides shade and brings growing things into the daily experience of dwelling.
The 40-square-metre design integrates arching planters into a proposed 3D-printed structure. Edible planting, habitat and rainwater collection are considered as part of the home itself. Repeated across a neighbourhood, the canopies could shape sheltered places between dwellings as well as private interiors.
Recognised with a Special Mention in the 2025 AA Prize for Unbuilt Work, the proposal explores a distinctive residential identity built around landscape, resourcefulness and the pleasure of living close to nature.
