HandsOn Design

HandsOn Design HandsOn Design is me, Paul Duncker. I'm an architect in private practice in Jackson Hole Wyoming. I

I called my firm HandsOn because it's an apt description of my design philosophy as well as the way I work. I started out as an apprentice cabinetmaker at age 13 studying with a master European craftsman (my father,) earned a full scholarship education at one of the country's most prestigious architecture schools (The Cooper Union,) and received my first professional license three years after grad

uating (1988.) The buildings designed by my small firm expose the logic behind their layout and highlight the work of the craftsman who build them. All of the design work, from the initial concept sketches to the final construction documents are prepared by a seasoned professional with 30 years of experience- me. What follows is a brief overview- you can find more detailed information on the company website: www.hands-on-design.com Thanks for taking the time to check us out.

Microhousing competition entry: The Qube. The Qube is designed to be a self-sufficient habitation module. Its minimal size (8'-6") conforms to federal highway standards for transportation. It generates its own electricity and collects its own water- both new and used. It accommodates the 3 main functions of a shelter: cooking/ sleeping/ bathing, and contains different rooms for each function, all within the same volume. To go from bedroom to bathroom or kitchen, you walk outside, flip the unit onto another face with the buil-tin winch and walk back in again. Simple.
