BUNKER XY

Homes

A private home, below ground.

The same engineering that makes a hospital deployable anywhere, applied to a home.

We design and build beautiful private bunkers for living, at nearly any scale and budget. Each residence is drawn for its own site: the land it sits in, the way daylight enters, and how the rooms are lived in.

Below ground

Living well, below ground.

Natural-light skylights that track the time of day bring the hours into the rooms. Simulated-view windows carry a view where there is no outlook. Around that light we plan a spa, wellness rooms, a gallery, a garage, and private spaces, composed as one house.

  • Skylights

    Natural light below grade, planned to follow the day from morning to evening.

  • Windows

    Simulated-view windows for rooms that stay enclosed.

  • Spa

    Water, heat, and a room set apart for stillness.

  • Wellness

    Space held for the body, quiet and unhurried.

  • Gallery

    A long room for art and objects, lit with the same care as the rest of the house.

  • Garage

    Arrival brought inside the plan, with the car kept private.

  • Private

    Rooms that remain off the path through the house.

Scale

Shelter, Residence, Estate.

Designed to your site, scale and budget

Shelter

A complete home on a contained plan. Proportion, light, and privacy, held in a smaller set of rooms.

Residence

A house for a full day. Daylit rooms, a place to gather, wellness, and the private rooms a household keeps.

Estate

The broadest plan. Gallery, garage, and wellness set with the land and the approach, as one composition.

Care

An optional medical suite.

We're designing toward an optional integrated medical suite based on SOLO-1. It is not offered today.

Discretion

Private, by design.

A commission stays between us and the person who writes. We plan the siting and the approach so the residence remains discreet, and we treat that privacy as part of the architecture.

Commission

A letter is enough.
