FRAME HOUSE

spring_2008

frame house is a home for an andy warhol collector. it is the result of an extremely conceptualized process. the first step was to design a display case that would embody the collection in the collector's home. my display case was inspired by the silkscreening process. the frame i created for my display case consisted of three levels of acrylic pieces on an interior track. the layers represent the silkscreening process, overlaying new colors on andy warhol's marylin. the display case also creates an interaction between the observer and the piece of art itself; it is a manipulation of the piece that allows the observer to form their own, individual layers and colors. the display allows for the preservation of the original print in the center of the grid. this concept was translated into the design of the collector's home by framing spaces within the house. the site is a 28 foot wide infill site, and the house is constructed with a series of 12 sectional frames that travel throughout the home, linking different programmatic elements. the large scale of these frames allow for the display of large-scale andy warhol prints that move on a track system, letting the residents interact with the house, and art, to create their own spaces.
