Drawings

Function of spaces are determined by this grip instead of build this grip before knowing the function, and the grip is positioned on the basis of sun direction. The dark grey hatches stand for the mix of properties of light grey areas.

Ramp: extent nature of land, mainly move between exterior and public

Spiral stair: located at the junction of spaces, used to move between private and public

They have common function for moving towards public at first floor and back to exterior on the top terrace.

Sun light gets into master room and living room (through the glass sliding door) in most of the time.

Transition between spaces

I separated the living room into two parts. The long block is suggested to be transition between terrace and the living room itself. Sliding glass doors allows accessibility to both people and sunlight.

This photo illustrates the lighting in the living room during day time.

Kitchen serve as a public facility which is reachable for the public as well as the bedrooms along the corridor which garther people up to bring interactive between users.

The hanging garden at the corner acts as a transition between the terrace and the sitting room, then the master room. This space holds the properties of terrace when it has shelter on top at the same time. People able to feel smooth change in environment while moving in and out.

The far end of the corridor is the bedroom which gives most privacy while maintaining a wide and freely visual sense due to the fact that its located in a corner with horizontal windows on two walls.

Project 2 - Villa Savoye

The ramps separate the building in the middle line, people able to experience contract between interior and terrace by gently bringing them up with gradual increase of sunlight through the windows.

This concept model shows openings and type of facade on each zone. It also allows me to view inside each rooms which helps to understand how different spaces connected to create circulation.
