Far from ordinary. The side-by-side house sits in the forest of Duane in Franklin County – fondly known as the Twin Sisters House 2. Built-in 2022, the house is located among lush greenery looking elegant in all its black glory structures and design. Under the hands of Iranian architect Milad Eshtiyaghi, the two units seem to connect but are totally separate from each other.
The house is aptly designed for the twin siblings that live in it. It quite literally lives up to its name, especially with how the house is divided as if to mirror each other. It creates a complete, curvaceous silhouette from afar.
Fit for Twins
Drawing inspiration from the design of the Twin Sisters 1 project, Eshtiyaghi decided to place the two identical units next to each other with a central space formed like a central courtyard. The house is then intersected by a spectacular tree in the middle along with a glass pool.
With its passageway and the mutual entrance, the concept of living maintains an unexpected construction that would enable inhabitants to live fluidly with their neighbours. In terms of interior space, the residence comprises three intersecting spaces with separate functions – the ground floor is a living space, whereas the upper story contains private corners and bedrooms. The open-concept living spaces in each of the units are flanked by floor-to-ceiling windows that would allow for uninterrupted views of the surrounding natural landscape.
