 Robert Harvey Oshatz Inspires With His Wood and Waves Fennell Residence Published: Nov 6, 09 Comments: 2 Views: 1,945 Architect Robert Harvey Oshatz let a wave inspire this houseboat, otherwise known as the Fennell Residence. The design is all curves, waves and gentle slopes. It’s a harmonious match for the seas and rivers the houseboat was designed to float on. Robert Harvey Oshatz always does an amazing job incorporating natural forms and beauty into all of his creations. Check out his site for more inspired work.  The series of intersecting and overlapping organic forms creates a sense of constant movement that is clearly inspired by surrounding waves but likewise reflects the never-still nature of the structure itself. More than just a clever aesthetic trick, however, this repeated form also serves a series of architectural functions, from defining interior volumes to letting in exterior natural light at both ends and along the roof line.
