Adam Day (B.Arch. ’08)

This home for a young family captures the essence of modern living within a traditional community that fronts a bike trail loop along the Arkansas River. The architect leaned on two local vernaculars — the shotgun and the dogtrot — for a straightforward design approach that also served the project’s tight budget.

“A compelling transformation and merging of the dogtrot and shotgun make this project agile on an otherwise difficult site,” the jury said. “Clean lines, forms, materials and an abundance of natural light make this project incredibly successful.”
