This contemporary L-stack house designed by Marlon Blackwell Architect is located in the city of Fayetteville, Arkansas, USA. It is built in trapezoid-shaped lot, traversed diagonally by a dry-bed creek. The designer’s concept is ‘L’ configuration that subdivides the interior program and the site into private and public entities. The house structure is formed by the two 18 -foot wide boxes hinged together by a glass-enclosed stairway. The L-Stack house as bridge provides an intensification of place, a cultured place revealing the evolving relations between home, nature, and city.

Primary materials at the interior include teak floors, walnut, white oak millwork, and painted wood plank accent walls.
