Random Road House


modern house with metal and wood exterior
The fourth house in the city of Lawrence, and the second for Tenants to Homeowners, 1603 Random Road was designed and completed during the spring semester of 2001. The three-bedroom, two-bathroom house features a fully accessible interior, while the second-floor amenities are designed to accommodate the needs of a residential care provider. The bathrooms are clad in translucent polycarbonate, introducing a dynamic quality of light and transparency to the interior. Recycled gymnasium flooring salvaged from a demolition site in Kansas City adds another layer of material reuse to the project. On the exterior, maintenance-free Corten steel clad the house, while a repurposed cooling tower forms the exterior screen along the two long facades.
