HUUS was designed for a Swiss couple, one an eccentric electrical engineer and the other a German teacher, who has lived in Raleigh for thirty years. Their children are older and live far away. The program includes a ground-level guest suite to accommodate long stays they and other distant families make on a regular basis. The house is located between much smaller houses. To mitigate this mismatch, the supporting program, including the garage, is buried. The ground level is an attenuated “T” shape to further reduce the perceived scale. The upper-level volume recedes from the street.

The existing house was built in the 60s, one of the first houses in the neighborhood, when the Getuba farm was divided into lots for the agricultural cooperative of Cotia, bringing a large number of Japanese to the region.
