Shield House by Studio H:T:

Studio H:T have designed the Shield House in Denver, Colorado.

.

Description from Studio H:T

This urban infill project juxtaposes a tall, slender curved circulation space against a rectangular living space. The tall curved metal wall was a result of bulk plane restrictions and the need to provide privacy from the public decks of the adjacent three story triplex. This element becomes the focus of the residence both visually and experientially. It acts as sun catcher that brings light down through the house from morning until early afternoon. At night it becomes a glowing, welcoming sail for visitors.

[Sweet!]

[As it is with all—discovery, honesty, and time.]

$10,000 Lemonade Stand:

Drew said he felt sad and wanted to help his father with medical bills.

“He is so important to me. We like to play with each other. Lots of times we like to play games,” Drew told a local television station.

Drew opened his stand for business outside his home on Saturday morning, charging 25 cents a cup. Word of his benevolent venture spread quickly, with some customers coming from dozens of miles away. 
 
One person wrote a $5,000 check and by the end of the day, Drew raised more than $10,000.
