Split Level House

Design studio Qb has completed a house in Philadelphia that features a glazed interior wrapped in a curved brick facade. I love the clean and precise feel of this 3-Story home.


Named Split Level House, the interior features bleached and blackened oak, polished steal and concrete. I imagine filling the home with Muji products.

A note from the designer:

Sited on a vacant corner in Philadelphia, this newly constructed house stitches itself into the neighborhood by responding to local cues. Curved brick corners negotiate the irregular street grid, while the cadence of typical rowhouses and a palette of brick volumes and stone bases are translated into a new vocabulary.
