Baulinder Haus
Leawood, KS, United States
Baulinder Haus is located just a few houses down from a landmark Kansas City area home designed
by Bauhaus architect Marcel Breuer. Baulinder Haus draws inspiration from the details of the neighboring
home. Vertically oriented wood siding, simple forms,
and overhanging masses—these were part of Breuer’s modernist palette. The house’s form consists of a series of stacked boxes, with public spaces on the ground level and private spaces in the boxes above. The boxes are oriented in a U-shaped plan to create a generous private courtyard. This was designed as an extension of the interior living space, blurring the boundaries between indoors and outdoors.
Floor-to-ceiling south facing windows in the courtyard
are shaded by the overhanging second floor above to prohibit solar heat gain, but allow for passive solar heating in the winter. Other sustainable elements of the home include a geothermal heat pump HVAC system, energy efficient windows and sprayed foam insulation. The exterior wood is a vertical shiplap siding milled from FSC certified Machiche.
