There was that old Brady Bunch episode where Bobby kept uttering the immortal line, “Mom said not to play ball in the house,” and some silly scenario ensued. Well Carol Brady probably wouldn’t have approved of the PAS House, a full-scale, 753.5-square foot prototype house being designed in Malibu,CA by Francois Perrin of LA-based Air Architecture.
Come to think of it Mike Brady was an architect, but yet he never came up with something as revolutionary as this design for former pro skateboarder and Etnies footwear founder Pierre-André Senizergues. The house, which will feature a sofa, bed and furniture from the Skate Study House collection is actually designed to be skateboard friendly. The concept was part of a the recent Public Domaine/Skateboard Culture at the new La Gaite Lyrique museum in Paris, but the completed residence will measure 2,200 square-feet and will be designed to overlook the Pacific in Malibu.
The key to this design is that everything in the house is skateable, including the walls, as the house is created in a ribbons that are 10 feet in diamter – making it possible for it to even be skated from the outside. The finished house promises to include three sections, a living room, dining area and kitchen; a bedroom and bathroom and finally a skateboard practice area – which seems like overkill, but what do we know.
Objects such as the dining table, kitchen island and even closets will be built to conform to the curve and can be used as skating surfaces. Truly a house for those possessed to skate!
