Bischoff Residence by Tom Mark Henry & UnFold Architecture

On Tlp Today, We Explore Tom Mark Henry’s Bischoff Residence Where Themes Of Balance, Light And Dark Underpin A Unique Union Of Traditiona

Themes of balance, light and dark underpin a unique union of traditional and contemporary in Tom Mark Henry’s Bischoff Residence, designed together with Unfold Architecture.

In collaboration with Unfold Architecture, Tom Mark Henry’s Bischoff Residence is a fusion of styles and times, referencing the site and the client’s history, and a forward-projecting future through architecture. Through the interweaving of themes of balance and contrast, the traditional and the contemporary come together with ease. As a response to the two clients, and their personalities and style, a combined and united design direction was established early on. The resulting home sees two main formal pavilions come together on site, much like the aforementioned styles and methodology, which are united around the central helical stair.
