Abstract
THESE WORDS OF THE POET underscore the significance of experience, meaning, and memory (history) in our relationships with a house. The original Arkansas House was damaged in 2002 due to an electrical fire, and our challenge was to add new elements that acknowledge its past but also opened up possibilities for rethinking and reshaping its spatial character. We had only three weeks to design our interventions and then worked out the details after construction began—one fragment at a time.
