Born from the Alchemical Transformation of Disused Wood
This video highlights the Shor House, located in Mayne Island, Canada, as a masterpiece by Measured Architecture that blends the beauty of repurposed wood with modern design. The house represents an extraordinary transformation of reclaimed wood, reflecting the philosophy of extending the life cycle of materials destined for disposal.
The narrative explores alchemy in architecture, emphasizing the repurposing of discarded wood as a frontier in wood design. The rebirth process of the house involves the careful deconstruction of old wooden structures, preserving materials for reuse. The decision to retain the original foundation and enhance elements like the dry-stacked stone wall underscores a commitment to conservation and harmony with Japanese tradition.
The richness of the Shor House is evident in the extensive search for recycled materials, including wood from a dismantled railroad and materials from the former Turner Dairy. The influence of sculptor Donald Judd in Marfa, Texas, is noticeable
