THE ARTICLE


"Richard Murphy's 'box of tricks' home named UK house of the year 2016"

Frearson, Amy. "Richard Murphy's 'box of tricks' home named UK house of the year 2016." Dezeen, December 15, 2016. https://www.dezeen.com/2016/12/15/richard-murphy-box-tricks-moving-walls-riba-house-year-edinburgh-uk/

Quotes from the article

"Based on the work of the architect's heroes, including Carlo Scarpa and Joan Soane, it features an assortment of adaptable spaces and nifty features."

"Murphy House was a real box of tricks with a uniqueplayful character"

"Although a small property, it was deceivingly large inside due to the clever use of space. Every room contained a surprise and the attention to detail was exceptional"

5 Words

Adaptable, nifty, unique, playful, surprise

My distinctive & significant theory about movement

'Movement' integrates a uniquely interactive dimension to the traditional built environment, allowing opportunity to integrate nifty adaptations tailored to the building's purpose & igniting a sense of playful surprise in the architectural experience.
