New sectional matings mitigate the redundant horizontal surfaces of suburban sprawl, while the hybridized spatial logic of house and store produce new efficiencies of land-use, infrastructure, and transportation.
Suburban dwellings migrate to occupy the vast horizontal roofscape of the big boxes.
The repetitive system of aisles in the megastore below establishes a linear designation of individual houses and yards above. Storage structures extrude through the inhabitable roof plane providing a container for the equipment and commodities of domestic life. Private pools double as skylights for the store below and interconnect as a continuous neighborhood lap pool. In New Suburbanism, individual houses reformat existing desires-creatively reclaiming the normative suburban spatial logic determined by commodified rooms and features. In New Suburbia, the dominate roof mass is conceived as a solid insulating mass, cocooning the private commodified bedrooms and suites.
