Homestead Residence is a project designed by KEM STUDIO. Located in Prairie Village, Kansas, the Homestead Residence anchors a corner lot and provides a reinterpreted homage to the Mid-Century Modern archetype that once occupied this lot. Photography by Bob Greenspan.

The corner lot presented the opportunity to separate the garage and main house volumes, allowing each to relate their street and connect the neighborhood fabric. A low slung hipped roof with deep overhangs joins the masses, creating an interstitial space that becomes a covered outdoor living room as the core of family life and gateway to the private back yard.
