In the Mall House, it develops architectural armatures to contain and establish relationship between multiple domestic spaces. Specifically, the project will investigate two architectural strategies for delineating thresholds the demising wall and the garden.

The demising wall is surface that subdivides and architectural volume into multiple autonomous interior (individual dwelling units. ) Typically, it is a vertical element that operates exclusively in plan. Functionally, it creates acoustic , visual and fire separation. And this project expends the potential of the demising as a material threshold.

The garden is an essential component of Los Angeles living. Often entering into or becoming a direct extension of the interior, it can operate as an individual space or as a buffer between spaces at a variety of scales. Typical configurations include forecourts, courtyards and roof terraces.
